Reaktionsschritte

46.4 g (0.2 mol) of silver oxide were added in portions, with constant stirring, to a mixture of 16.2 g (0.1 mol) of malic acid dimethyl ester and 57 g (0.30 mol) of 2-fluorobenzyl bromide. An exothermic reaction started slowly, and the temperature rose to 80° C. After cooling, 200 ml of ether were added, the solid was filtered off, the filtrate was concentrated and the residue was distilled at 180° C. in a waterpump vacuum. 19.6 g (72.6% of theory) of 2-(2-fluorobenzyloxy)-butane-1,4-dicarboxylic acid dimethyl ester were obtained.
