Participants

Reaction Steps

Aluminum chloride (3.43 g, 25.6 mmol) was slowly added into a dichloromethane solution (80 mL) in which were dissolved 11,13,13-triethyl-6,6-dimethyl-11,13-dihydro-6H-11-aza-indeno[2,1-b]anthracene (6.80 g, 20.0 mmol) and acetyl chloride (1.83 mL, 25.7 mmol) at 0° C. under nitrogen atmosphere. After stirring at room temperature overnight, the reaction mixture was poured into ice-water. The product was extracted twice with dichloromethane. The combined organic layer was washed with brine, and dried over MgSO4. Dichloromethane was removed under high vacuum and the product thus obtained was used for the next step without further purification.
