Reaction Steps

To a solution of dicyclopropylmethan-1-ol (1.5 mL, 12.7 mmol) in dichloromethane (20 mL) is added rhodium (II) acetate dimer (10 mg) followed by ethyl diazoacetate (1.26 mL, 12.0 mmol). The reaction mixture is stirred at rt for 48 h. The reaction mixture is diluted with heptane, and filtered. The filtrate is evaporated, and the residue is vacuum distilled at 170° C. to give 1.24 g of the product 448.
