Procedure
Cyanoacetic acid (20.85 g, 0.245 mol) was added to decanol (47 mL, 0.25 mol) and methane sulfonic acid (0.5 mL, 7.8 mmol), followed by heating under reduced pressure while removing the water by-product through the use of a dean stark trap. The reaction was cooled upon completion, providing the title compound in quantitative yield.
