Reaction Steps

A mixture of phenyl trimethoxy ethylene (0.005 mol) and benzaldehyde (0.005 mol) in ZnCl2-Choline chloride (2:1) melt (0.5 ml) was stirred mechanically for 10 minutes and silylated intermediate was pipetted out and treated with HCl(1N)/MeOH (1:10) to give pure 3-hydroxy 1,3-diphenyl-1-propanone quantitatively.
