Abstract

In the presence of gallium dichloride, the reaction of carbonyl compounds or their dimethylacetals with aromatic compounds afforded Friedel-Crafts alkylated adducts in good yields. It was suggested that the adducts were obtained by way of a reduction of the carbonyl compounds or their dimethylacetals, followed by the Friedel-Crafts reaction in one-pot. This is the first organic synthetic method with gallium dichloride, low valent gallium.
