To a mixture of 12.7 grams of 2,5-bis(4-methylbenzyl)terephthalic acid and 90 mL of trifluoroacetic acid was added 81.6 grams of trifluoromethanesulfonic acid. The reaction was stirred 22 hours at room temperature. The mixture was poured over 500 grams of ice. The resulting solid precipitate was collected by filtration, washed with 750 mL of saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate and 1 L of water until the filtrate was neutral to pH paper. The solid was washed with heptane and dried to give 7,14-dihydro-3,10-dimethylpentacene-5,12-dione.
