A 300-ml three-necked flask equipped with a thermometer and a stirrer was charged with 87 g (0.45 mole) of a 28% sodium methoxide solution in methanol and 21 g (0.30 mole) of cyclopropanecarbaldehyde and, after the contents had been cooled down to −10° C., 48.9 g (0.45 mole) of methyl chloroacetate was added dropwise over 3 hours. After completion of the addition, the reaction mixture was allowed to be warmed up to room temperature and was then stirred at room temperature for 5 hours. Thereafter, 12 g (0.20 mole) of acetic acid was added to neutralize remaining sodium methoxide and the resulting mixture was poured into 140 g of water. The reaction mixture thus obtained was extracted three times each with 50 ml of ethyl acetate and the extracts were washed with 50 ml of saturated salt water. The mixture thus washed was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and condensed. The residue was distilled under reduced pressure to yield, as distillates at 70 to 73° C. [6 mmHg (8.0 hPa)], 29.8 g (0.21 mole; yield: 70.0%) of methyl 3-cyclopropyl-2,3-epoxypropionate having the following properties.
