Procedure

5 g of 5-fluoro-1-indanone are dissolved in 50 ml of dry dimethylformamide, and 18.2 g of anhydrous, powdered potassium carbonate and 3.57 g of m-cresol are added. The reaction mixture is stirred at 110° C. for 6 h. The solvent is removed by distillation in vacuo, and the residue is mixed with 100 ml of water and stirred for 2 h. The aqueous residue is extracted with ethyl acetate, and the organic extract is washed 3× with water, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. 5-m-Tolyloxy-1-indanone is obtained as a brown oil which is reacted further without further purification.
