General procedure for the synthesis of 3-bromo-1-indanone from 1-indanone: 264 g (2.2 mol) of 1-indanone was dissolved in 154 mL of carbon tetrachloride, and 390 g (2.2 mol) of N-bromosuccinimide (non-caking powder) and 0.5 g of benzoyl peroxide were added. The reaction was refluxed under mechanical stirring for 1.5 hours. During the reaction, the color of the mixture changed abruptly to yellow and all N-bromosuccinimides (density greater than carbon tetrachloride) were converted to succinimides (density less than carbon tetrachloride). After completion of the reaction, the mixture was cooled to 20 °C, filtered and concentrated in vacuum. The crude product, 3-bromo-1-indanone, was dissolved in 600 mL of ethyl acetate/heptane (1:2) solvent mixture, cooled in an ice bath for 2 h, and subsequently crystallized in a refrigerator overnight to give 257 g of 3-bromo-1-indanone crystals in 62% yield. | [References]
