The Friedel-Crafts reaction of anisole with acetic anhydride can be carried out in the presence of perfluorinated rare earth metal catalyst without organic solvent. Perfluorodecalin (C10F18, cis- and trans-mixture) can be used as a fluorous phase solvent for this reaction. Whereas, the reaction of N,N-dimethylaniline with acetic anhydride did not give the corresponding Friedel-Crafts reaction product. On the other hand, the Friedel-Crafts reaction of N,N-dimethylaniline with ethyl glyoxylate was also examined in the presence of perfluorinated Lewis acids. Three products were in fact formed at the same time.
