Reaction Steps

Acetophenone (0.601 g) was dissolved in 15 ml of 2-propanol, 2.04 g of aluminum triisopropoxide was added, and the mixture was stirred at 25° C. for 4 hours. After hydrolysis with 1 N hydrochloric acid, the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. Concentration gave 0.564 g of an oil, which was analyzed by HPLC (conversion 0.6%, yield 0.4%).
