Procedure
A mixture of ethyl 2,4-dioxo-6-p-tolylcyclohexanecarboxylate (5 g.) prepared as in Example 1, and p-toluenesulphonic acid (0.5 g.) dissolved in 2-ethoxyethanol (50 ml.) was allowed to stand at 25° C for 16 hrs. Pouring the mixture into excess aqueous Na2CO3 solution followed by ether extraction afforded a mauve coloured solution containing the product. After decolourisation of the solution with activated charcoal, evaporation of solvents and crystallisation of the residue from ether/cyclohexane afforded ethyl 4-ethoxyethoxy-2-oxo-6-p-tolyl-3cyclohexenecarboxylate m.p. 59°-60° C.
