Participants

Reaction Steps

Charge an oven dried, nitrogen flushed 100-mL round bottomed flask equipped with a stirring bar with β-tetralone (4.977 grams, 0.0340 moles), triethylamine (6.970 grams, 0.0689 moles), 4-dimethylamino pyridine (0.219 grams,0.0018 moles), trimethylsilyl chloride (7.704 grams, 0.0709 moles) and 30 mL methylene chloride. Stir at RT for 20 hours, filter, wash the solid with 1×20 mL methylene chloride, wash the combined organic layers with 1×5 mL saturated sodium bicarbonate solution, 1×5 mL water, dry over magnesium sulfate, concentrate on a Buchi rotavapor and distill (96°-99° C., 1 Torr) to yield the product as a viscous oil.
