Procedure
46.7 g (0.35 mol) of aluminium chloride are added portionwise to a solution of 28.3 g (0.117 mol) of 5-bromo-6-methoxyindan-1-one in 500 ml of toluene. The reaction mixture is heated at reflux for 15 minutes and is then poured into water and the phases are separated by settling (sparingly soluble product).
