Procedure
In a 10 liter autoclave were put 1473 g (10.08 mol) of methyl 4-methoxy-3-oxobutyrate, 2210 ml of ethanol, and 4.59 g (5.09 mmol) of Ru2Cl4((S)-Tol-BINAP)2.NEt3, and asymmetric hydrogenation was carried out at 100° C. under a hydrogen pressure of 4000 kPa for 4 hours (conversion: 100%). The solvent was removed by evaporation to yield 1490 g of the title compound as liquid.
