The reaction mixture was stirred for 15 minutes, cyclopropanecarbonyl chloride (941 mg, 817 μL, 9.0 mmol) was added dropwise at 0° C. and stirred for 2 hours. The reaction mixture was quenched with 1M HCl (20 mL), extracted with ethyl acetate (2×50 mL). The organic layer was washed sequentially with sat. aq. NaHCO3 (5 mL) and brine solution (50 mL), dried over MgSO4 and purified by silica gel column chromatography using 0-30% EtOAc/hexanes as eluent to give ethyl 4-(cyclopropanecarbonyl)benzoate (1.54 g, 71%) as a pale yellow oil. ESI-MS m/z calc. 218.0. found 219.3 (M+1)+; Retention time: 1.57 minutes (3 min run).
