Participants

Reaction Steps

Selectfluor™ (1.16 g, 3.27 mmol) was added to a solution of 5,7-difluoro-1-indanone (CAS No. 84315-25-3, 500 mg, 2.97 mmol) in MeOH (20 mL) at room temperature. The mixture was refluxed for 2 hours and cooled to room temperature. Then the solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure. The residue was treated with DCM and the insoluble matter was filtered off. Then the solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure. The residue was dissolved in MeCN (10 mL) and 5 N HCl (5 mL). The solution was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour, and then concentrated in vacuo. The residue was partitioned between AcOEt and H2O. The organic layer was washed with brine, dried over MgSO4, and concentrated in vacuo to afford the title compound (547 mg, 2.94 mmol). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3)
