Description

2-Indanone undergoes TiCl4-Mg mediated coupling with CHBr3 to yield dibromomethyl carbinol. It reacts with 5,5-dimethyl-3-pyrazolidinone to yield 5,5-dimethyl-2-(1H-indenyl-2)-3-pyrazolidinone. On photolysis by 266-nm one-photon excitation yields o-xylylene. It was used as starting reagent in the synthesis of indene-fused porphyrins.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
