Under a nitrogen atmosphere, a mixture of methyl 3-phenylpropionate (3.0 mmol), t-butanol (3.6 mmol), the zinc cluster obtained in the above-described Example 5 (0.0375 mmol), and diisopropyl ether (5.0 ml) was refluxed for 18 hours. As a result, t-butyl 3-phenylpropionate was obtained quantitatively.
