Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2-(2-bromoethyl)-1-(bromomethyl)-3,4-difluorobenzene (3 g, 9.62 mmol) and 6-bromo-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-1-one (2.03 mg, 9.62 mmol) in THF (20 mL) was added NaH (0.58 mg, 14.43 mmol), and the mixture was refluxed for 2 hour. The reaction was cooled and quenched with ice-water. The mixture was extracted with EtOAc. The organic layer was washed with brine, dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated to give the residue, which was purified by preparative TLC to afford 6-bromo-5′,6′-difluoro-3′,4′-dihydro-1′H-spiro[indene-2,2′-naphthalen]-1(3H)-one (1.6 g, 46%). 1H NMR (CDCl3): 1.68 (m, 1H), 2.01 (m, 1H), 2.47 (d, 1H), 2.72 (m, 2H), 2.89 (d, 1H), 3.07 (m, 2H), 6.71 (m, 1H), 6.86 (m, 1H), 7.22 (d, 1H), 7.63 (d, 1H), 7.92 (s, 1H).
