Preparation

3-chlorobenzaldehyde as raw material first reacts with propionic acid to prepare 3-chloro-phenylpropionic acid, which is then subjected to Friedel-Crafts acylation reaction to prepare 5-chloro-1-indanone. Organic solvents of formic acid diethylamine participate in the first step, and the reaction temperature is 20-150℃. An organic solvent of methylene chloride and a catalyst of zinc chloride participate in the second step, and the reaction temperature is -10 to 80 ℃.
