Procedure
t-Butyl ethyl malonate (25.00 g, 0.13 mol) was dissolved in toluene and warmed to 80° C. To the resulting solution was added 1,3-dibromo-5,5-dimethylhydantoin (25.00 g, 0.07 mol). The reaction was stirred at elevated (80° C.) temperature 18 hr. The reaction was cooled, concentrated and taken up in Et2O. The organic layer was washed with saturated NaHCO3 (2×), brine (3×), dried (MgSO4), filtered and concentrated. Purification by filtration on silica (70:30-heptane:ethyl acetate) yielded 33.0 g (93%) of a light yellow oil. NMR and MS indicated a mixture of three compounds, starting material (20%), monobrominated (55%) and dibromonated diesters (25%). The material was used without further purification.
