1-(5-bromo-4-fluoro-2-hydroxyphenyl)ethanone

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: In a bottle were combined 1-(5-bromo-4-fluoro-2-hydroxyphenyl)ethanone (8.63 g, 37.15 mmol), benzaldehyde (3.94 g, 37.15 mmol), EtOH (96%, 45 mL) and NaOH (13.08 g, 327 mmol). The mixture was stirred vigorously for 0.5 h. and then filtered. The mixture was poured into HCl (1 N, 50 mL) and filtered. The solid was dried to give 1-(5-bromo-4-fluoro-2-hydroxyphenyl)-3-phenylprop-2-en-1-one (10.8 g, 91%). filtered The mixture was poured into HCl (1 N, 50 mL) filtered The solid was dried
