A mixture of 26 g (0.2 mol) of ethyl acetoacetate and 43 g (0.2 mol) of 1,4-dibromobutane is slowly added dropwise to this suspension and the reaction mixture is stirred for approx. 24 hours at this temperature. Towards the end of the reaction, the temperature may optionally be raised to 90° C. for a further hour. The precipitated sodium bromide is filtered out, the DMF removed and the residue fractionated. 29 g (78%) of 1-acetyl-1-cyclopentanecarboxylic acid ethyl ester are obtained. Bp.: 136° C.
