Hydrochloric Acid → Ethyl 4,4-difluoro-3-oxopentanoate

Lithium hexamethyldisilazide (150 ml of a 1M solution in THF, 0.15 mol) was cooled in an argon atmosphere to −78° C. and ethyl acetate (15 ml, 0.14 mol) was added dropwise with stirring. Stirring was continued for one hour at −78° C., then ethyl 2,2-difluoropropionate (12 g, 0.089 mol) was added dropwise with stirring. Stirring was continued for four hours at −78° C., then a saturated solution of ammonium chloride (175 ml) was added dropwise. The mixture was allowed to reach room temperature, acidified with 1M HCl (50 ml) and left standing overnight. The phases were separated. The aqueous phase was extracted with ethyl acetate, the combined organic phases were washed with 1M HCl, brine and dried over sodium sulfate. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure and the residue was purified by vacuum distillation (54 mbar, 130° C.) to yield 12.4 g (0.068 mmol, 77%) of a colourless liquid that was used directly in the next step.
