Procedure
To a solution of 18.26 g of the 2-ethyl-2,4,5,7-tetramethylindan-6-carboxaldehyde in 58 ml of absolute acetone was added 28 ml of water and 32 g of 2% NaOH. After refluxing for 20 hours, the solution was acidified was 2N HCl and extracted with diethyl ether. The organic layer was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered and evaporated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica-gel column chromatography to afford 19.38 g of the title compound as yellow oil.
