A round-bottom flask was charged with 10% palladium on carbon (10 g, 9.4 mmol). The flask was cooled to about 0° C. and EtOAc (400 mL) was added under a nitrogen atmosphere. The cooling bath was removed and ethyl 2-ethyl-4-oxocyclopent-2-enecarboxylate (47.8 g, 263 mmol) was added. Hydrogen gas was bubbled through the mixture for about 5 min and the mixture was then stirred under a hydrogen atmosphere for about 48 h at ambient temperature. The hydrogen source was removed, the mixture was bubbled with nitrogen for about 5 min and was filtered through a pad of Celite®. The filter cake was rinsed with EtOAc (400 mL). The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure to give ethyl 2-ethyl-4-oxocyclopentanecarboxylate (about 9:1 mixture cis:trans) (48.0 g, 99%) as a yellow liquid: 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ 4.23-4.10 (m, 2H), 3.22 (m, 1H), 2.59-2.50 (m, 1H), 2.44-2.28 (m, 3H), 2.26-2.16 (m, 1H), 1.58-1.46 (m, 1H), 1.41-1.30 (m, 1H), 1.30-1.23 (m, 3H), 1.02-0.91 (m, 3H).
