Procedure
A mixture of α-bromohexanophenone (25.5 g, 0.1 mole), ammonium formate (22 g, 0.35 mole) and formic acid (110 mL) is refluxed with stirring for 3 hours. The reaction mixture is poured onto ice, made basic with 10 N NaOH, and extracted with ether. The organic layer is washed with water, dried over sodium sulfate, and concentrated. The crude product is purified by flash chromatography on silica gel eluting with 20% ethyl acetate in hexane to provide the desired compound as an oil. 1H NMR (δ, CDCl3, 400 MHz) 7.55 (m, 2H), 7.40 (s, 1H), 7.34 (dd, J=7,7 Hz, 2H), 7.22 (dd, J=7, 7 Hz, 1H), 2.74 (m, 2H), 1.6 (m, 2H), 1.30 (m, 2H), 0.84 (t, J=7 Hz, 3H) ppm.
