Procedure

A mixture of 1-(3-Bromo-4-cyclohexyloxy-phenyl)-hexan-2-one (7.08 mmol, 2.5 g), oxo-acetic acid ethyl ester solution in toluene (2.8 mL, 50% solution in toluene) and triethylamine (0.5 mL) was stirred at ambient temperature for 16 h. The reaction mixture was diluted with DCM (300 mL), washed with water (3×100 mL), dried the organic layer and concentrated under reduced pressure. The resultant residue was purified by flash silica gel chromatography using mixture of hexanes in ethyl acetate (9:1) to provide 3-(3-bromo-4-cyclohexyloxy-phenyl)-2-hydroxy-4-oxo-octanoic acid ethyl ester (2.0 g).
