Procedure

Charged 900 g of 6-bromo-2-tetralone, 1.9 L of nitromethane and 37 g of ethylenediamine in 10 L flask. Heated the mixture liquid to 75° C. in a vessel under N2 for 24 hours to complete the reaction. When the reaction was complete, distilled out the excess nitromethane under reduce pressure. Introduced 200 g of silica gel to the residue with cooling. Hexane (10 L×3) was used to extracted, filtered and the hexane layer combined. On cooling, crystals were formed. About 500 g of 7-bromo-1,2-dihydro-3-(nitromethyl)naphthalene was obtained.
