Direct C-alkylation of indan-1,3-dione (I) with reactive alkyl halides under mild conditions leads to the formation of 2-alkyl-indan-1,3-dione (II) along with bis-alkylated derivative (III) and traces of 2-alkylated bindone (a self-condensation of indan-1,3-dione).The isolation and characterisation of these compounds are described.
