A 540 mg quantity of 5-tert-butoxycarbonyl-4-methoxycarbonylmethyl-5-(cis-2-pentenyl)-2-cyclopentenone and 10 mg of p-toluene sulfonic acid are dissolved in 20 ml of benzene, and the solution is refluxed for 20 minutes. The resulting reaction mixture is neutralized with sodium bicarbonate. The solvent is distilled off from the mixture, and the residue is distilled in a vacuum, giving 4-methoxycarbonylmethyl-5-(cis-2-pentenyl)-2-cyclopentenone (compound (1-a), R2 =CH3) in a yield of 91%, b.p. 88°-92° C./2.5 mm Hg.
