Procedure
Treatment of 3-(trifluoromethyl)-3,4-dihydro-1(2H)-naphthalenone (178) (0.40 g, 1.87 mmol) with bromine followed by DBU in CH3CN gave 0.23 g (43% from tetralone) of the title compound (179) as a colorless oil. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ 6.45 (s, 1H), 7.58-7.68 (m, 2H), 7.83 (s, 1H), 7.84-7.90 (m, 1H), 8.28 (d, J=7.5 Hz, 1H). LCMS (ESI): m/z 289 (M−H)−.
