Reaction Steps

To a solution of 4-oxotetrahydrothiophene-3-carbonitrile (0.50 g, 3.9 mmol) in anhydrous acetone (7.8 mL) was added potassium carbonate (1.63 g, 11.8 mmol), followed by iodomethane (0.56 g, 3.9 mmol). The resulting mixture was stirred at 35° C. for 1 hour. The mixture was cooled to ambient temperature, filtered, and carefully concentrated in vacuo to afford the title compound. The residue was carried forward without further purification.
