Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 14.7 parts of 3-(1-hydroxyethyl)-o-tolyl 2-thienyl ketone and 126 parts of benzene is stirred while cooling on an ice-bath. Then 9.5 parts of thionyl chloride are added and the whole is stirred further over week-end at room temperature. The reaction mixture is evaporated in vacuo, yielding 3-(1-chloroethyl)-o-tolyl 2-thienyl ketone as a residue.
