Reaction Steps

Scheme 3 illustrates a route to 7-substituted tetralin derivative 8. 3-Bromophenylacetic acid is converted to the corresponding acid chloride and this is subjected to Friedel-Crafts reaction with ethene, affording the 7-bromo-2-tetralone 7. This intermediate may be elaborated using the procedures described in Scheme 1 to provide the acid (8).
