A mixture of 3,4-dihydro-1(2H)-naphthalenone (21.9 g), 3-nitrobenzaldehyde (22.6 g) and p-toluenesulphonic acid monohydrate (50 mg) in toluene (250 ml) was stirred at reflux with separation of water for 4.5 hours. The brown solution was allowed to cool overnight, the resultant orange-yellow solid filtered off, washed with toluene and dried in vacuo to give 2-(3-nitrobenzylidene)-3,4-dihydro-1(2H)-naphthalenone as yellow needles.
