Ethyl cyanoacetate (2.50 g, 22 mmol) and 1,4-dibromobutane (5.00 g, 23.0 mmol) were dissolved in anhydrous DMF (20 ml) under nitrogen and cesium carbonate (21.0 g, 64 mmoles) added with water bath cooling. After stirring at room temperature for 18 h the reaction was diluted with water and extracted with ethyl acetate (2×80 ml), the organic layers were combined and washed with water (40 ml) and saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution (25 ml). The organics were dried over magnesium sulphate, filtered and evaporated under reduced pressure to give 1-cyano-cyclopentanecarboxylic acid ethyl ester as an almost colourless oil (3.64 g, 98%).
