Methanol → Methyl 4-bromo-2-methylbutanoate

4-Bromo-2-methyl-butyric acid (2.16 g, 1 eq, prepared according to the procedure described in J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1990, 112, 2755) was dissolved in MeOH (10 mL) and a few drops of conc. H2SO4 were added. The reaction was stirred at reflux for 16 hours. After reaction completion, as monitored by LC-MS, MeOH was removed under reduced pressure, the oily residue was diluted with water, the pH adjusted to 9 with 10% NaOH, and the product was extracted with Et2O (2×20 mL) and dried over Na2SO4. The title compound was obtained as a colourless oil (1.29 g, 55% yield) after solvent removal.
