Procedure
1,1′-Carbonyldiimidazole (101 g; 0.62 mmol) was added portionwise to 4-cyclopentylpentanoic acid (100 g; 0.58 mol) in THF (500 ml). After the gas evolution ceased, the reaction mixture was reacted with sodium ethylate solution prepared from sodium (0.3 g; 13 mmol) and ethanol (500 ml), stirred at room temperature for 2.5 hours, and the solvent evaporated in vacuo. The residue was dissolved in ether (300 ml), washed successively with water (300 ml), 1 N NaOH (300 ml), and 1 N HCl (300 ml), dried (MgSO4), concentrated in vacuo, and distilled over a 10 cm Vigreux column (66° C./0.08 torr) to give 59.4 g (52% yield) of ethyl 4-cyclopentylpentanoate.
