40 ml of chloroform was stirred for 1 h at 20°C. The
mixture was evaporated, the residue was treated with
150 ml of diethyl ether, and the precipitate was filtered
off, washed with diethyl ether, and dried. Yield 3.3 g
(81%).
bromine in 25 ml of carbon tetrachloride was added
over a period of 1 h to a suspension of 2.8 g (8 mmol)
of diketone I and 2.5 g (36 mmol) of sodium acetate in
30 ml of carbon tetrachloride, stirred at 0°C. When the
reaction was complete, excess bromine was removed
by purging with an inert gas, the mixture was washed
with water and dried over MgSO4, the solvent was
distilled off, and the crystalline product was filtered off
and dried. Yield 2.2 g (63%), yellow crystals, mp 101–
102°C. IR spectrum, ν, cm–1: 1718, 1648, 1582, 822,
2,4-Dichloro-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1,5-diphenyl-
pentane-1,5-dione (VII). Chlorine was passed over
a period of 30 h through a solution of 3.6 g (10 mmol)
of diketone II in 30 ml of carbon tetrachloride, heated
to 75–80°C. The solvent was distilled off under re-
duced pressure, and the crystalline product was filtered
off, washed with ethanol, and dried. Yield 2.3 g (55%),
colorless crystals, mp 124.5–125°C. IR spectrum, ν,
