Reaction Steps

Phenylglyoxal monohydrate (304 mg, 2 mM) and o-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 20 minutes. Using the same procedure as in Example 1, 3',4'-dimethylbenzoin was obtained as crystal (258.7 mg, 54.0% yield).
