Procedure
Under a nitrogen atmosphere, a solution of bromine (8.61 mL, 167 mmol) in chloroform (20 mL, 200 mmol) was added dropwise over a period of 2 h to a solution of 3-oxopentanoic acid, methyl ester (Aldrich, 21.0 mL, 167 mmol) in chloroform (147 mL, 1840 mmol), at 0° C. (ice bath). The reaction mixture was stirred for 30 min at 0° C. and then allowed to stand at room temperature overnight. While stirring, a stream of air was bubbled through the solution for 1 hour. After drying over sodium sulfate, the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure leaving the desired compound.
