UsesEthyl benzoylacetate (Best) is used as an intermediate for different organic synthesis Product Data Sheet

UsesEthyl benzoylacetate (Benzoylacetic acid ethyl ester) was used to prepare ethyl 2-fluoro-2-benzolyacetate. It was also used to synthesize iodonium ylides.

General DescriptionEthyl benzoylacetate is an ester. It undergoes microbial reduction by bakers′ yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae), Beauveria sulfurescens or Geotrichum candidum to afford ethyl (S)-3-hydroxy-3-phenylpropionate. It undergoes Claisen condensation reaction with malononitrile to afford 2-cyano-5-phenyl-3,5-dioxopentanonitrile which on cyclization followed by coupling with diazonium salts yields azo derivatives.

Preparation methods

PreparationBy condensation of ethyl benzoate with ethyl acetate (via Claisen condensation) using sodium ethoxide; another method also known.
