Reaction Steps

A mixture of 6,7-dichloro-2-cyclopentyl-5-hydroxy-2-methyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-1-one (9.0 g, 30 mmole), chloroacetonitrile (2.5 g, 33 mmole), potassium carbonate (4.15 g), and potassium iodide (0.5 g) in acetone (150 ml) was stirred at reflux for 19 hours. Concentration to dryness in vacuo yielded an oil that crystallized upon trituration with water. Recrystallization from benzene-cyclohexane (ca. 1:3 by volume) gave the title compound (8.5 g), m.p. 129°-131°.
