Procedure
For example, the 2-aryl-1,3-cyclopentanediones may be prepared by the base-promoted cyclization of the appropriate δ-aryl levulinic acid ester. This is illustrated by reacting ethyl-5-(2',4'-dichlorophenyl)-4-ketopentanoate with sodium ethoxide in the presence of a toluene solvent to form 2-(2',4'-dichlorophenyl)-1,3-cyclopentanedione. The δ-aryl levulinic acid esters used as reactants in the above synthesis can be prepared using conventional esterification techniques of the appropriate δ-aryl levulinic acids.
