Procedure

350 g crude (1-carboxymethyl-cyclopropyl)-acetic acid (2.2 mole, 92% purity, from step 1) are suspended in a mixture of 350 ml of mesitylene and 678 g of acetic anhydride (6.6 mole, 3 eq) and heated to 100° C. Upon reaching that temperature, the pressure is reduced to approximately 200 mbar and 45% of the solvent mixture are distilled off (distillation takes approx. 1 h). Then the mixture is slowly cooled to 0-5° C. and the precipitate is collected by filtration. The filter cake is washed with 87 ml of cold mesitylene and then dried in vaccuo at 40° C.
