Procedure

A mixture of 80% formic acid (100 mL, 2618 mmol) and 30% hydrogen peroxide (23 mL, 149 mmol) was warmed at 40° C. for 10 min. The resulting solution was carefully added to 1-cyclopentenyl-4-fluorobenzene (24.155 g, 149 mmol) under stirring. The two-phase system was initially stirred at room temperature. After a certain period of time, a spontaneous exothermic reaction took place, and the temperature rose to about 50° C. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 h. The reaction mixture was quenched by careful addition of a saturated sodium bicarbonate solution. Ether was added and the content of the separatory funnel was vigorously shaken. The organic layer was separated and the aqueous layer was extracted with ether. The combined organic extracts were dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and filtered. The solvent was removed in vacuum and the residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel to give 2-(4-fluorophenyl)cyclopentanone (18.557 g, 104 mmol, 69.9% yield) as colorless oil.
