Friedel-Crafts reaction of decaline and acetyl chloride does not give acetyldecaline but is accompanied by dehydrogenation to give 5, 6, 7, 8-tetrahydronaphthyl-(2) methyl ketone (I). A substance that is easily nitrated is obtained by decaline and aluminum chloride so that, it can be assumed that decaline is dehydrogenated by aluminum chloride and then undergoes condensation to give (I).
