Procedure

A 250 mL Schlenk flask is charged with diethyl ether, 100 mL, then chilled to -20° C. To the chilled solvent is added n-butyllithium, 5.4 mL of a 2.79 M in hexane (15 mmole). To the magnetically stirred mixture is added nitrogen degassed indene, 1.92 mL (16.5 mmole). The mixture is stirred overnight at room temperature.
