Reaction Steps

Ethyl 3-{3,5-difluoro-2-[2-(ethoxycarbonyl)vinyl]phenyl}acrylate (5.7 g, 18.4 mmol) in 250 mL of ethyl acetate was hydrogenated at 60 psi over 10% palladium on carbon (0.57 g) for 4 hours and then the mixture was filtered through Celite. Evaporation of the solvent gave ethyl 3-{3,5-difluoro-2-[2-(ethoxycarbonyl)ethyl]phenyl}propionate (5.73 g, 22.4 mmol) as a colorless oil.
