Reaktionsschritte

To a solution of 4,5-dimethoxy-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-1-one (165) (100 mg, 0.520 mmol) in toluene 15 mL was added 4-((trifluoromethyl)thio)benzaldehyde (72) (118.4 mg, 0.572 mmol) and PTSA (178.9 mg, 1.414 mmol). The reaction was stirred at 120° C. for 6 h. The resulting reaction mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate and washed with water (3×25 mL). The organic layer was dried over sodium sulphate and concentrated to get the crude, which was purified through flash chromatography by using 100-200 mesh silica gel. The compound was eluted at 25% ethyl acetate in hexane to afford yellow coloured solid of (E)-4,5-dimethoxy-2-(4-((trifluoromethyl)thio)benzylidene)-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-1-one intermediate 166.
