Hydrochloric Acid → 4,6-Dichloro-2-methyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-1-one

To a solution of sodium ethoxide in ethanol obtained from 4.80 g (0.21 mol) of sodium and 120 ml of anhydrous ethanol, a solution of 36.5 g (0.21 mol) of diethyl methylmalonate in 50 ml of ethanol was added dropwise while vigorously stirring for 15 min. Then, 39.1 g (0.20 mol) of 2,4-dichloro-1-(chloromethyl)benzene was added dropwise with such a rate, so the reaction mixture would be slowly refluxing. The resulting mixture was additionally refluxed for 4 h, then cooled to room temperature, and a solution of 40 g of potassium hydroxide in 100 ml of water was added. This mixture was refluxed for 3 h, and then ethanol was distilled off at atmospheric pressure. The solution obtained was cooled to ambient temperature and acidified by saturated hydrochloric acid to pH 1. The precipitate formed was filtered off, washed with 2×200 ml of cold water, and dried in air. The dibacic acid obtained was then dehcarboxylated by heating it at 160° C. for 2 h. To the viscous oil obtained, 40 ml of dichloromethane and 60 ml of SOCl2 were added, and the resulting mixture was refluxed for 2 h. Dichloromethane and an excess of SOCl2 were distilled off, and the residue was dissolved in 50 ml of anhydrous dichloromethane. The solution obtained was added dropwise to a suspension of 25.3 g (0.19 mol) of AlCl3 in 260 ml of dichloromethane for 1 h at 0° C. The reaction mixture was refluxed for 3 h, then cooled to room temperature, poured on 500 cm3 of ice, and finally acidified by saturated HCl to pH 3. The organic layer was separated, and the aqueous layer was washed with 3×300 ml of methyl-tert-butyl ether. The combined organic fractions were dried over K2CO3 and then evaporated to dryness. The title product was isolated fractional distillation in vacuum, bp 135-138° C./1 mm Hg. Yield 37.0 g (86%).
