Procedure

To a solution of crude 4-methyl-6-(trifluoromethyl)-2H-pyran-2-one (28.8 g, 162 mmol) in acetic acid (330 mL) was added ammonium acetate (25.0 g, 324 mmol). The reaction solution was heated at 120° C. over weekend. The solvent was removed in vacuo. The residue was diluted with ethyl acetate and washed with saturated NaHCO3 and brine, dried over Na2SC4, filtered and concentrated. The crude was purified with pad silica gel. The solvent was removed. The solid was washed with 10:1 hexanes/ethyl acetate to give the desired product as white solid. LCMS (M+H)+: 178.0.
