Friedel-Crafts acylation of arenes with carboxylic acids using silica gel supported $AlCl_3$

Aromatic compounds react smoothly with carboxylic acids in the presence of silica gel supported aluminium trichloride to afford the corresponding ketones with high regioselectivity in high to excellent yields. The catalyst is stable (as a bench top catalyst) and can be easily recovered and reused without appreciable change in its efficiency.

27. In the preparation, 1.0 g of solid catalyst was fused with Na metal, extracted with 10 mL of water, and filtered. The aluminium and chloride content of the filtrate was determined by the Mohr titration method. For the procedure, refer to: I. M. Kolthoff, E. B.
