Reaction Steps

4-Hydroxy-1-indene is prepared starting from 4-hydroxyindanone via 1,4-indanediol, 4-acetoxy-1-indanol and 4-acetoxy-1-indene in this order. The resulting 4-hydroxy-1-indene is allowed to react with epichlorohydrin in an aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide to give 4-(2,3-epoxypropoxy)indene. [cf. Yakugaku Zasshi 92, 1358 (1972)].
