Procedure
Potassium carbonate (26.9 g) is added to a solution of bis(2-fluorophenyl)acetaldehyde (30.8 g) in 1,2-dimethoxyethane (135 cc), and butenone (19.9 cc) is then added dropwise and after cooling to -50° C. The reaction mixture is stirred for 12 h at -50° C. and then for 6 hours at 25° C. and diluted with ethyl acetate (250 cc) and water (200 cc). The organic phase is washed with water (3×200 cc) and then with saturated sodium chloride solution (200 cc), dried over magnesium sulphate and concentrated under reduced pressure (2.7 kPa). The residue is chromatographed on a column of silica gel (particle size 0.04-0.063 mm, diameter 5.5 cm, height 50 cm), eluting under a nitrogen pressure of 0.5 bar with a mixture of cyclohexane and ethyl acetate (90:10). 2,2-Bis(2-fluorophenyl)-5-oxohexanal (9 g) is obtained in the form of a yellow oil. A solution of this compound (6.65 g) in toluene (100 cc) containing para-toluenesulphonic acid (1.5 g) is heated to reflux for 3 hours, washed with water (2×100 cc) and then with saturated sodium chloride solution (100 cc), dried over magnesium sulphate and concentrated under reduced pressure (2.7 kPa). The residue is chromatographed on a column of silica gel (particle size 0.04-0.063 mm, diameter 4 cm, height 30 cm), eluting under a nitrogen pressure of 0.5 bar with a mixture of cyclohexane and ethyl acetate (90:10) and collecting 15-cc fractions. Fractions 21 to 26 are combined and concentrated to dryness under reduced pressure (2.7 kPa) to give 4,4-bis(2-fluorophenyl)cyclohexenone (2.83 g) in the form of a yellow oil.
