Reaktionsschritte

To a solution of ethyl acetoacetate (10 g, 76.8 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (50 ml) at 0° C. was added sodium hydride (4 g, 60% in mineral oil, 100 mmol) portionly. The reaction mixture was stirred for minutes, and 2-bromoacetophenone (16.8 g, 84.5 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (20 ml) was added dropwisely. After warming the mixture to room temperature, it was stirred for 4 hours. The resulting solution was quenched with water and normal work-up accomplished with diethyl ether. The organic layer was dried with MgSO4, and purified by silica gel column chromatography (EtOAc:Hx=1:5) to produce desired compound (19 g, 98%) as light yellow color oil.
