Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a solution of hydrogen chloride (10 L, 12.2% wt) charged into a 20-L, round-bottomed flask was added 3-(1,1-dimethylethyl) 1-(phenylmethyl) 1,3-pyrazolidinedicarboxylate (1000 g, 3.27 mol at room temperature. The mixture solution was heated at 35° C. for 4 h. The mixture solution was poured into 10 kg of ice and the pH was adjusted to 4 using aqueous NaOH (5M) solution. The product precipitated out and a filtration was performed to give the product (690 g, 1.32 mol, 84%) as a white solid.
