반응 단계

4,4-Dimethyl-pent-2-enoic acid methyl ester (8.52 g, 60.0 mmol) was dissolved in MeOH (30 mL) and ethyl acetate (30 mL). Palladium on carbon (10 wt %) (˜50 mg) was added to the reaction and was placed under a H2 balloon (1 atm). The reaction was allowed to stir for 12 hours, flushed with nitrogen and filtered over a pad of celite. Evaporated to provide 4,4-dimethyl-pentanoic acid methyl ester (7.0 g, 48.5 mmol, 81%) as a colorless oil: 1H NMR (CDCl3, 400 MHz) δ 0.89 (s, 9H), 1.53-1.57 (m, 2H), 2.26-2.30 (m, 2H), 3.67 (s, 3H).
