The heat of reaction maintained the mixture to boiling under reflux during the addition and the mixture was heated under reflux for a further hour. The mixture was cooled to 0°, dry cadmium chloride (19.6 g) was added and the temperature allowed to rise to 20° C. After 1 hour, cyclopropanecarbonyl chloride (20.8 g) in dry ether (50 ml) was added dropwise and the mixture was heated under reflux for 4 hours, cooled to 0° and treated with 2 N hydrochloric acid. The ether layer was separated, washed with aqueous sodium bicarbonate (3× 100 ml., 8%) and with water, dried over magnesium sulphate, filtered and evaporated. The residue was distilled under reduced pressure and the fraction b.p. 86°-90°/0.4 mm was collected.
