Procedure

66.3 g (0.03 mol) of the foregoing 3-carboethoxy-2-cyano-2-hydroxy-3,5-dimethylcyclopentanone and 30.2 g (0.4 mol) of anhydrous sodium acetate are treated with 350 ml of water. The mixture is refluxed for 6 hours. For the working-up, the mixture is adjusted to pH 7 with saturated sodium hydrogen carbonate solution and then extracted four times with methylene chloride. The organic phases are dried over sodium sulphate, concentrated and dried in a high vacuum for 1 hour. (The product can, however, also be directly crystallised from the reaction mixture). There are obtained 42.6 g (73%) of crystalline 2-carboethoxy-2,4-dimethylcyclopent-4-en-5-olone of melting point 92°-93° C.
