Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

0.50 g (3.01 mmol) of 1-(4-(methylthio)phenyl)ethanone, 0.73 g of (3.01 mmol) of 3′,5′-dichloro-2,2,2-trifluoroacetophenone, 1.46 g of toluene and 0.17 g (0.90 mmol) of tributylamine were fed and the mixture was stirred for 15 hours at 60° C. After leaving the reaction mixture for one night at room temperature, separation operation was performed by adding 30 ml of ethyl acetate and 10 ml of water, and the ethyl acetate phase was washed with diluted aqueous solution of hydrochloric acid. After removing the solvent by distilling under reduced pressure, the residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography to obtain 0.56 g of 3-(3,5-dichlorophenyl)-4,4,4-trifluoro-3-hydroxy-1-(4-(methylthio)phenyl)butan-1-one (yield 45.2%).
