Procedure
To a solution of 4.12 g of 4-hydroxy-1-indanone and 7.3 ml of N-ethyldiisopropylamine in 30 m of dichloromethane, 2.3 ml of chloromethyl methyl ether was added dropwise while stirring under ice cooling. An ice bath was removed and the mixture was continuously stirred overnight. The reaction solution was diluted with diethyl ether, washed with water, an aqueous 10% citric acid solution and an aqueous 5% sodium hydroxide solution, and then dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure to obtain 4.23 g of the desired compound as a pale orange crystal having a melting point of 51 to 54° C.
