To a solution of N-methoxy-N-methyl-2-phenyl-isobutyramide (example 207E) (16 g, 77.2 mmoles) in THF (300 mL) cooled at −50° C. is added dropwise a 1.6M solution of MeLi in Et2O (80 mL, 131.2 mmoles). The reaction mixture is allowed to reach 0° C. and 1N HCl (130 mL, 130 mmoles) is added. The aqueous phase is extracted with Et2O. The organic phase is washed with brine, dried over MgSO4, filtered and the solvent is removed under reduced pressure to give 3-methyl-3-phenyl-butan-2-one.
