Procedure
Add pellets of KOH (376 mg, 6.7 mmol) to a solution of 3-(10,11-dihydro-dibenzo[a,d]cyclohepten-5-ylidenemethyl)-phenol (200 mg, 0.67 mmol) in isopropanol (10 mL). Bubble chlorodifluoromethane (Freon 22) slowly into the reaction mixture for 2 h. Concentrate the reaction mixture, and take the residue up in 1N HCl. Extract into ethyl acetate, dry organics (MgSO4), filter, and concentrate to a milky tan oil containing the title compound. Purify via silica gel chromatography (1:20 ethyl acetate:hexanes) to afford 108 mg (20%) of a white solid, mp 91.3° C. 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ 2.66-3.56 (br m, 4H), 6.12 (t, 1H, J=80 Hz), 6.55-7.43 (m, 13H); MS (EI) 348. HPLC shows 97% purity.
