Procedure

A mixture of 1-[4-(methylsulfonyl)phenyl]-3-methylpentane-1,4-dione (110 mg, 0.41 mmol), 4-bromoaniline (71 mg, 0.41 mmol), and p-toluenesulfonic acid (10 mg) in toluene (3 mL) was heated at reflux temperature using Dean-Stark apparatus. After cooling down, volatiles were removed by evaporation. The residue was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel eluting with ethyl acetate/hexane (1/3) to give the subtitle compound (110 mg, 67% yield).
