2-(Trimethylsilyloxybutadiene (6.46 g, 45.4 mmol), phenylmethyl 2-methyl-2-propenoate (8.00 g, 45.4 mmol), and 4,4′-methanediylbis[2,6-bis(1,1-dimethylethyl)phenol] (0.019 g, 0.045 mmol) were combined together in a 20.0 mL microwave vessel and heated to 200° C. for 300 mins. Sample recovered and removed from vessel using THF (˜3×10 mL). The solvent was removed under reduced pressure and the residual oil taken up in 10% 2N HCl/THF (100 mL) and stirred overnight. After this time a clear solution formed, which was diluted with water (50 mL), partitioned into DCM (2×100 mL) and the organic layers separated, dried over MgSO4, filtered and the solvent removed under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by FC over Silica (150 g: 5-10% EtOAc/iso-hex) to afford a clear oil. Confirmed by NMR to be phenylmethyl 1-methyl-4-oxocyclohexanecarboxylate (3.48 g, 11.30 mmol, 24.89% yield).
