Sodium methoxide (3.51 g. 0.065M) was added to a mixture of methyl 2-methylthio-4-trifluoromethylbenzoate (12.5 g 0.050M) and cyclopropyl methyl ketone (7 ml, 0.070M) in toluene. The mixture was heated at 55-57° C. for 1 hour. Methanol was distilled under reduced pressure. After cooling to 20° C. the mixture was acidified and the organic phase washed (sodium bicarbonate solution and with water) and evaporated to give 1-cyclopropyl-3-(2-methylthio-4-trifluoromethylphenyl)propane-1,3-dione as yellow crystals (14.03 g), m.p. 64° C. A yield of 92.9% was obtained. The purity of the product was 95%.
