Procedure
5 ml of tetrachloromethane were added to 24.3 g (1 mol) of magnesium turnings in 50 ml of dry ethanol under nitrogen and in the absence of moisture. After the beginning of gas evolution, a solution of 177.7 g (1 mol) of tert-butyl acetoacetate in 100 ml of dry ethanol was slowly added dropwise, the reaction mixture being kept at the reflux temperature. Stirring was carried out for a further 4 hours at this temperature, after which the mixture was cooled. 78.5 g (1 mol) of acetyl chloride was slowly added dropwise at 10° C. Stirring was continued for a further 4 hours at room temperature and hydrolysis was then effected with a mixture of 450 ml of ice-water and 25 ml of concentrated sulfuric acid. The organic phase was separated off, dried, and evaporated down under reduced pressure. 192.3 g of >96% pure tert-butyl 2-acetylacetoacetate were obtained.
