Procedure
A mixture of 288 g of 4-methoxycinnamic acid methyl ester, 500 g of nitromethane and 23 g of tetramethylguanidine is allowed to stir for 72 hours. The solution is diluted with diethyl ether and aqueous hydrochloric acid solution (1 N, 1 liter) is added. The organic layer is separated, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and evaporated to give 4-nitro-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)butanoic acid methyl ester.
