Procedure
2-Nitroindane-1,3-dione (20.5g; 0.107 moles) in ethanol (100 ml) was heated under reflux for 4 hours, cooled, poured into water (1 liter), allowed to stand overnight and filtered. The solid was extracted with 5% sodium bicarbonate solution (3 × 100 ml) and filtered. The insoluble solid was predominantly the Ψ-ethyl ester, 3-ethoxy-3-nitromethylphthalide, contaminated with some α-ethyl ester. Acidification of the combined sodium bicarbonate filtrates, filtration and recrystallisation from ethanol gave the α-ethyl ester, 2-ethoxycarbonyl-ω-nitroacetophenone, m.p. 81°.
