(57) [Abstract] [Purpose] 7-acetyl-1,1,3 It is an object of the present invention to provide a method for producing 4,4,6-hexamethyltetralin. [Structure] P-cymene and 2,3-dimethyl-1-butene are subjected to a cycloalkylation reaction in the presence of anhydrous aluminum halide and a tertiary alkyl halide to give 1,1,3,3. 4,4,6-hexamethyltetralin is synthesized, and an acetylating agent prepared by mixing acetyl chloride or acetic anhydride and anhydrous aluminum halide in advance is added to the reaction solution for acetylation. |
