Procedure

Using a stirred reactor, a mixture of 144 parts of 2-naphthol and 5 parts of oxalic acid is heated to 130° C., while stirring, and 104 parts of styrene are added continuously over one hour. The mixture is then stirred for three hours at 130° C. After completion of the reaction, the mixture is distilled under reduced pressure, giving 213 parts (86% of theory) of 1(α-phenylethyl)-2-naphthol (boiling point 172/176° C./0.2 mbar). The conversion is 90 percent.
