Ethyl β-cyclopropyl-β-ketopropionate (247.0 g, 1.58 mole) [prepared according to the procedure described in J. Am. Chem. Soc., 70, 497 (1948)], triethyl orthoformate (468.3 g, 3.16 mole) and acetic anhydride (484.0 g, 4.74 mole) were combined and the solution was stirred at reflux for 4 h and at ambient temperature for 17 h. The excess reagents were distilled at water aspirator pressure (maximum head temperature permitted was 72° C.) and the oily pot residue was stirred at 10° C. with a mixture of ether and water. The ether layer was separated, washed once with cold water and dried over Na2SO4. Removal of the solvent gave 321.5 g (96%) of an orange-red liquid that was used directly in the next step.
