Comments
Synthesis: This reaction type was also carried out at room temperature, and gave the same high yield in 7 h with both silica-supported and free TsOH. With microwave heating, the yield dropped for free TsOH, but using the silica-supported reagent, the reaction was quick and clean. The enol ketone starting material was synthesised from substituted acetophenone and ethyl 2,2,2-trifluoroacetate (see 0601011048_09).

Work-up and purification: After the reaction, the solvent was removed under reduced pressure and the product purified by column chromatography on a Biotage SP4 system.

Characterisation: Full spectroscopic data was obtained.
