Procedure

4-Phthalimido-2-butanone was obtained from the literature procedure, Eriks et al, J. Med. Chem., 1992, 35, 3239-3246. Sodium tert-butoxide (20.75 g, 0.216 mol) was added over a period of 12 minutes to ethanol (160 mL) under a nitrogen atmosphere. When all solids had dissolved, diethyl oxalate (31.55 g, 0.216 mol) and a suspension of 4-phthalimido-2-butanone (46.9 g, 0.216 mol) were sequentially added. The reaction was stirred at ambient temperature for 2.5 hours. A precipitate was present and was isolated by filtration to provide 37.4 g of ethyl 2,4-dioxo-6-phthalimidohexanoate, sodium salt as a light orange solid.
