Reaction Steps

A mixture of 4,4-difluoro-1-[4-(methylthio)phenyl]-butane-1,3-dione (2.4 g) and 4-methoxyphenylhydrazine hydrochloride (1.9 g) in acetic acid (10 ml) was stirred at 100° C. for 1 hour. The solvent was evaporated and the residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel (30 g) eluting with toluene.
