Several 2-(2-chlorophenyl)-1-phenylethanones and (2-chlorophenyl)(phenyl)methanones were prepared by the Friedel–Crafts acylation reaction of 2-(2-chlorophenyl) acetic acids and 2-chlorocarboxylic acids, respectively, in the presence of cyanuric chloride, pyridine, and AlCl₃ or FeCl₃ using microwave heating. The yields of the ketones were significantly higher than those obtained using conventional heating. In addition, similar reactions carried out with the less inexpensive and less toxic FeCl₃ gave titled ketones in comparable yields. Interestingly, the FeCl₃ catalyzed reactions gave pure ketones (no chromatographic purification required), whereas the AlCl₃ catalyzed reaction gave impure product that required chromatographic purification.
