Procedure

A mixture of 10 parts of bis(4-fluorophenyl)methanone, 22.1 parts of 3-chloro-1,2-propanediol, 0.2 parts of 4-methylbenzenesulfonic acid hydrate and 90 parts of methylbenzene was stirred and refluxed for 23 hours using a water-separator. The reaction mixture was poured onto alkaline water. Upon stirring, the layers were separated. The organic phase was washed with alkaline water, dried, filtered and evaporated, yielding 14 parts (100%) of 2,2-bis(4-fluorophenyl)-4-(chloromethyl)-1,3-dioxolane as a residue (intermediate 99).
