Procedure

In a glass reactor, a mixture of 600 ml of toluene and 22.5 g of trifluoromethanesulfonic acid were kept heated at 110° C., and, while stirring the mixture, 312.8 g of trifluoromethylbenzoyl chloride was dropped into the reactor so as to spend 5 hr in dropping the entire quantity. After that the heating and stirring were continued for 5 hr, and then 1.2 liter of hexane was added to cause precipitation of 4-trifluoromethyl-4'-methylbenzophenone in the form of platy crystals. The cystalline precipitate was collected by filtration, washed and dried. The dried product weighed 276 g (69% yield). From the filtrate, 111 g (28% yield) of 4-trifluoromethyl-2'-methylbenzophenone was obtained.
