Procedure

A Grignard reagent prepared from 0.2 mole of 4-trimethylsilylchlorobenzene and 0.2 mole of magnesium was reacted with 0.2 mole of 4-dimethylaminobenzaldehyde. The resulting reactant was subjected to oxidation by the Oppenauer method, to yield 4-dimethylamino-4'-trimethylsilyl benzophenone.
