Reaction Steps

A mixture of 2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-4-ol (0.37 mol) and acetic anhydride (0.37 mol) in sulfuric acid (300 mol) was stirred for 1 hour at room temperature. The reaction mixture was poured out into a mixture of water and 1,1'-oxybisethane. The organic layer was separated, dried (MgSO4), filtered and the solvent was evaporated, yielding 75 g (>100% crude residue) of 2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-4-ol acetate (ester) (interm. 1-a).
