| Product | Ethyl 4-(4-chlorophenyl)-4-oxobutanoate | HCID 10490261 | — |
Reaction Steps
4-(4-Chlorophenyl)-n-butyric acid was prepared by reacting 4-chlorobenzaldehyde with ethyl acetate and sodium cyanide to provide ethyl 4-(4-chlorophenyl)-4-oxo-butyrate, hydrolyzing the ethyl butyrate derivative to afford 4-(4-chlorophenyl)-4-oxobutyric acid, and then reducing the 4-oxo-group of said acid by reaction with zinc and hydrochloric acid.
