Abstract
It was demonstrated that a dialkylcadmium reagent would successfully react with the unsaturated acid chloride, cinnamoyl chloride, under both ordinary conditions and at 0 ° in the presence of ferric chloride to give the alkyl styryl ketone in yields of 54% and 46% respectively. The nbutyl styryl ketone obtained in the reaction displayed infrared absorbtion at 5.92 μ (C=O) and at 6.04 μ (C=C). The dipole moment was found to be 3.16 D in benzene solution at 25°.
