Procedure

5.5 g of N′-(5-chloro-2-methylindan-1-ylidene)-N,N-dimethylhydrazine are emulsified in 100 ml of 2N sulfuric acid and boiled under reflux for 4 h. The cooled reaction mixture is cautiously extracted with ethyl acetate; the organic extract is extracted several times with saturated sodium bicarbonate solution, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered, dried in vacuo and chromatographed on silica gel with ethyl acetate/hetpane ⅕. 5-Chloro-2-methylindan-1-one is obtained as an oil.
