69.3 g (0.3 mol) of 4-phenylphenacyl chloride are added in portions to a solution of 0.6 mol of 2,4-dichlorobenzyl-magnesium chloride, obtained from 15.9 g (0.65 mol) of magnesium and 117.3 g (0.6 mol) of 2,4-dichlorobenzyl chloride in 300 ml of ether. The reaction mixture is then poured onto aqueous ammonium chloride solution and the ether phase is separated off, washed with water, dried over sodium sulphate and evaporated. The oil which remains is extracted with petroleum ether and the petroleum ether solution is evaporated. The crystals are filtered off and dried. 62 g (53% of theory) of 2-(4-biphenylyl)-3-chloro-1-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-propan-2-ol of melting point 84° C. are obtained.
