Procedure
Water (0.5 mL) was added to a stirring solution of ethyl 2-(8-methyl-1,4-dioxaspiro[4.5]decan-8-yl)acetate (1.6 g, 6.60 mmol) and formic acid (10 mL) at room temperature. Analysis of the reaction mixture by LCMS indicated that the starting material was consumed and the desired product had formed. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure, and the residue was partitioned between EtOAc and brine, the layers were separated, the organic material washed with brine (2×), dried (Na2SO4), filtered, and the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure to give a pale yellow liquid ethyl 2-(1-methyl-4-oxocyclohexyl)acetate (1.6 g, 8.07 mmol, 86% yield): 1H NMR (500 MHz, CDCl3) δ 1.22-1.31 (m, 6H), 1.77-1.91 (m, 4H), 2.39-2.43 (m, 6H), 4.12-4.23 (m, 2H).
