4-Methyl-3-oxopentanenitrile was added to a mixture of ethylene glycol (4.7 mL, 84 mmol) and chlorotrimethylsilane (10.6 mL, 84 mmol) in anhydrous dichloromethane (50 mL). The mixture was stirred at 40° C. overnight. After cooling to room temperature a solution of 5% sodium bicarbonate (50 mL) was added, the layer were separated and the water phase back extracted three times with diethyl ether. The organics were combined, dried (MgSO4), filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. The resulting residue was purified by silica gel chromatography (hexane/ethyl acetate 8:2) to afford 2-(2-isopropyl-1,3-dioxolan-2-yl)acetonitrile (3.38 g, 78%) as a colorless oil. 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3) δ 4.21-4.16 (m, 2H), 4.07-3.99 (m, 2H), 2.69 (s, 2H), 2.08-2.01 (m, 1H), 0.96 (d, 6H).
