Abstract
The present invention relates to a novel organic compound, phenyl alpha,beta-epoxy-beta-(3-trifluoromethylphenyl)ethyl ketone. This compound may be produced by: (a) condensing 3-trifluoromethylbenzaldehyde with acetophenone under basic conditions to form a substituted chalcone, and (b) epoxidation of the substituted chalcone to produce the corresponding epoxide, phenyl alpha,beta-epoxy-beta-(3-trifluoromethylphenyl)ethyl ketone.
