A mixture of 3-(2-(tert-butoxy)-2-oxoethylidene)cyclobutanecarboxylic acid (3.4 g, 16.02 mmol) and 10% palladium-carbon (100 mg, 0.94 mmol, 50%, wet) in MeOH (30 mL) was stirred at room temperature for 5 hr under hydrogen atmosphere (1 atm). The catalyst was removed by filtration, and the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure. The obtained residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (solvent gradient; 30→100% ethyl acetate/hexane) to give 3-(2-(tert-butoxy)-2-oxoethyl)cyclobutanecarboxylic acid (3.40 g, 15.87 mmol, 99%) as a colorless oil.
