Benzoyl chloride (11.4 ml, 0.1 mole) was added to a stirred solution of 2-hydroxymethylene-6-methoxy-1-tetralone 2 (10 g, 0.05 mole) in about 60 mL of pyridine at about 0°. After the addition was complete, the mixture was stirred at about 23° for about 2 hours then poured into water. The solid was filtered and washed with water. The pure product was obtained by recrystallization from methanol to yield 2-benzoyloxymethylene-6-methoxy-1-Tetralone (12.1 g, 0.04 mole, 80% yield), mp 128.5°-129.5°, [Lit. Kieboom et al., Synthesis, 476-478, (1970), mp 130°-130.5°].
