Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

Corresponding to the procedure described in Organometallics 7 (1988), 921, 0.52 g (0.074 mole) lithium was added to a solution of 7 g (0.032 mole) of compound 7 in 150 ml tetrahydrofuran (THF) and was stirred overnight. The red solution obtained was filtered through a frit to remove residual solids and the filtrate was cooled to 0° C. Thereafter, a solution of 1.45 g (0.01 mole) AlCl in 20 ml THF was added drop-wise and the solution was brought to room temperature. An aliquot portion was taken for analysis and the remaining solution was used directly for the preparation of compound 9.
