Procedure
A 250 mL flask was charged with tetralone (5.2 g, 35.6 mmol) and 3-bromobenzaldehyde (8.51 g, 56 mmol). This was dissolved in warm tetrahydrofuran (20 mL), and to this yellow solution was slowly added a 4 wt % solution of KOH in methanol (160 mL). The reaction was stirred for 4 days at room temperature. The mixture was concentrated and reduced to approx 10% vol. The residue was filtered and washed with MTBE (3*50 mL), dried, to afford a light yellow powder (10.3 g, 92%).
