Reaction Steps

11.2 g (0.07 mole) of 6-ketoheptanoic acid was dissolved in 100 ml of dichloromethane and 10 g of N-methylmorpholine was added. The reaction mixture was cooled in an ice bath, stirred and kept under a nitrogen atmosphere. 11.6 g (0.085 mole) of isobutyl chloroformate dissolved in 25 ml of dichloromethane was slowly added over a period of 15 minutes. The reaction mixture was allowed to proceed for one hour. The reaction mixture was evaporated to an oily solid and used in subsequent reactions.
