The mixture was stirred for 10 minutes and acetyl chloride (10 g) was added dropwise at a rate sufficient to maintain the temperature below 0° C. The solution was stirred at -5° C. for 11/2 hours when boron trichloride (15 mls) was added. Stirring was continued for 1/2 hour at +3° C. before pouring on to crushed ice/concentrated hydrochloric acid and separating the two phases. The aqueous phase was extracted with ether (3x) and the combined organic extracts were washed with saturated sodium bicarbonate solution, saturated brine solution, and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulphate. Evaporation of the solvent yielded the crude product as a pale yellow oil. Vacuum distillation furnished a pale yellow oil bp 120°-125° C./0.15 mm (16.2 g; 59%)
