A Novel Synthesis of 1-(2,4,6-Trihydroxy-3,5-dimethylphenyl)ethanone (Di-C-methylphloracetophenone) and Two New Non-Aromatic C-Benzylated Derivatives

The synthesis of the title compound 1e was achieved by an easy three-step procedure from 1,3,5-benzenetriol (1a, phloroglucinol).Compound 1a was C-methylated using MeI.The crude mixture obtained was acetylated to give 1d which was converted into 1e using BF3*AcOH complex.Benzylation of the latter with benzyl chloride afforded the new non-aromatic compound 2.Reaction of 2 with NaOH and benzoyl chloride (Scheme 1) gave the new compound 4.Its structure was established by X-ray analysis. - Keywords: Acetophenone / Di-C-methylphloracetopheneone
