Sodium methoxide (64 g, 1.15M) was added to a mixture of methyl 2-methylthio-4-trifluoromethylbenzoate (200 g, 0.8M) in chlorobenzene (380 g). The mixture was heated to 75° C. and cyclopropyl methyl ketone (75 g, 0.88M) added during 2 hours whilst maintaining stirring at 75° C. After 4 hours methanol was distilled under reduced pressure. the mixture cooled to 50° C., and water followed by sulphuric acid (53 g of 36N) added. The organic phase was distilled under reduced pressure to give 1-cyclopropyl-3-(2-methylthio-4-trifluoromethylphenyl)propane-1,3-dione as yellow crystals (240 g), m.p. 58-60° C. A yield of 88% was obtained. The purity of the product was 90%.
