Procedure
118.2 g (0.4 mol) of ethyl 2-cyano-3-[(pivaloyl)oxy]-4-ethyl-2-hexenoate were dissolved in acetonitrile and cooled to 10° C. At 10-15° C., 112 g (0.8 mol) of 25% strength ammonia solution were then added dropwise, and the mixture was stirred at 15° C. for 3 h. The organic phases is [sic] washed, dried and concentrated. Recrystallization with diisopropyl ether gave 57.5 g (68% of theory) of the title compound (m.p. 87° C.).
