Reaction Steps

Phenylglyoxal monohydrate (304 mg, 2 mM) and m-xylene (0.49 ml, 4 mM) were dissolved in dichloroethane (4 ml), titanium tetrachloride (0.33 ml, 3 mM) was added, and reacted at room temperature for 30 minutes. Using the same procedure as in Example 1, 3', 5'-dimethylbenzoin was obtained as a light-yellow oil (363.2 mg, 75.3% yield).
