Trichloroacetyl chloride → Methyl 2-(2,2-dichloro-3-oxocyclobutyl)acetate

To a mixture of but-3-enoic acid methyl ester (1.00 g, 10 mmol) and zinc-copper couple (1.97 g) in 1,2-dimethoxyothane (4.89 ml) and diethyl ether (37 ml), trichloroacetyl chloride (2.98 ml, 26.7 mmol) is added at room temperature under nitrogen. The mixture is stirred at room temperature for 3 days. The mixture is filtrated and washed with diethyl ether. The filtrate is concentrated under reduced pressure, and the obtained residue is purified by silica gel column chromatography to give (2,2-dichloro-3-oxo-cyclobutyl)-acetic acid methyl ester (2.93 g, quant.); TLC (hexane/AcOEt, 3:1) Rf 0.35, 1H NMR (400 MHz, chloroform-d) δ ppm 2.68-2.74 (m, 1H), 2.94-3.00 (m, 1H), 3.06-3.13 (m, 1H), 3.33-3.41 (m, 1H), 3.51-3.57 (m, 1H), 3.75 (s, 3H).
