Hydrochloric Acid → 1-Phenyl-3-chloro-3-cyclohexylpropan-1-one

Participants

Reaction Steps

The reaction and post treatment were carried out in the same manner as in Example 10 except that 1-phenyl-3-hydroxy-3-cyclohexylpropan-1-one obtained by the same production process as in Preparation Example 1, was used as the starting material, and hydrochloric acid (180 g) was changed to hydrogen chloride gas (20° C., 12,300 ml, 511 mmol), and the reaction was carried out at −20° C., whereby the desired 1-phenyl-3-chloro-3-cyclohexylpropan-1-one (97.1 g, 407 mmol) was obtained in a yield of 96%.
