Procedure

Under an argon atmosphere A1Cl3 (64 g, 0.48 mol) and CS2 (250 ml) were placed in a 1 liter three necked round bottomed flask fitted with a magnetic stirring apparatus, an addition funnel, an inner thermometer and a reflux condenser. A mixture of tigloyl chloride (33) (42 g, 0.35 mol) and p-xylene (42.8 ml, 0.35 mol) was added over a period of 1 h at −10° C. under vigorous stirring. After 2 h stirring at −10° C. the mixture was allowed to come to ambient temperature and was stirred at that temperature overnight. The brown reaction mixture was then refluxed for 3 h, after cooling to ambient temperature the reaction mixture was poured carefully onto a mixture of concentrated HCl (300 ml) and ice (500 g). Then the mixture was transferred into a separation funnel, the lower CS2 layer was separated and the aqueous layer extracted with diethyl ether (3×100 ml). The combined organic layers were dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered, and the solvents removed in a rotary evaporator to give a red brown liquid. This residue was rectified using a 35 cm Vigreux column to afford 2,3,4,7-tetramethyl-1-indanone (35) (34 g, 52%, 95-100° C., 1.5-1.2 mbar) as a pale yellow liquid. (35) was found to be a mixture of the two isomers of 2,3,4,7-tetramethyl-1-indanone (35a to 35b approximately 3:1). The 1H NMR spectrum was identical with the literature (S. Barlow, D. R. Cary, M. J. Drewitt, D. O'Hare, J. Chem. Soc. Dalton Trans. 1997 3867-3878).
