Procedure

A mixture of (2S)-2-methyltetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-carboxaldehyde (4.0), malonic acid (6.495 g) and piperidine (0.1 ml) in pyridine (10 ml) was heated to 100° C. for 4 hours. The reaction mixture was concentrated and partitioned between ethyl acetate (100 ml) and 1N HCl. The organic layer was dried, evaporated and recrystallised form toluene to give the title compound. Yield 2.48 g. NMR CDCl3 1.2 (m, 4H), 1.5 (m, 1H), 1.7 (m, 2H), 2.45 (m, 1H), 3.5 (m, 2H), 4.05 (m, 1H), 5.8 (d, 1H), 7.0 (dd, 1H).
