Procedure
The 6,8-dimethoxy-1-tetralone (3.0 g; 14.0 mmoles) was refluxed overnight with 20 ml of 48% aqueous hydrogen bromide and 20 ml of glacial acetic acid. After cooling to room temperature, the reaction mixture was neutralized with a saturated sodium bicarbonate solution and extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined extracts were dried (brine, magnesium sulfate) and concentrated to afford a red solid which upon trituration with ether gave the desired compound as an off-white solid, 1.77 g (71%); m.p. 209°-210° C.
