Reaction Steps

With stirring and ice cooling, 111 g of triethylamine was added to a mixture of 120 g of methacrylic acid chloride, 200 g of 2-methyl-2-hydroxyindane, and 1500 g of toluene. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 16 hours. By standard aqueous work-up and solvent distillation, a crude product was obtained. It was purified by column chromatography, yielding the target compound, 2-methylindan-2-yl methacrylate, designated Monomer 1.
