Participants

Reaction Steps

Vinyl acetate and (1R,cis,E) 2,2-dimethyl-3-[2-fluoro-3-oxo-3-hydroxy-1-propenyl]-cyclopropane carboxylic acid were reacted in the presence of mercuric acetate as a catalyst to obtain (1R,cis,E) 2,2-dimethyl-3-[2-fluoro-3-oxo-3-ethenyloxy-1-propenyl]-cyclopropane carboxylic acid which was reacted with benzyl alcohol to obtain benzyl (1R,cis,E) 2,2-dimethyl-3-[2-fluoro-3-oxo-3-ethenyloxy-1-propenyl]-cyclopropanecarboxylate with a specific rotation of [α]D20 =+26° (c=1.2% in chloroform).
