Under a nitrogen atmosphere, 2.56 ml (29.8 mmol) of oxalyl chloride and 2 drops of DMF are added to 1.69 ml (14.9 mmol) of 2-(2-methoxyethoxy)-acetic acid (Fluka; Buchs/Switzerland) in 75 ml of methylene chloride. After 17 h at RT, the reaction mixture is carefully concentrated by evaporation in a RE with the exclusion of moisture. A 1H-NMR spectrum of the residue exhibits the signals of the title compound in addition to signals of ≈40% solvent (especially methylene chloride): 1H-NMR (200 MHz, CDCl3): 3.37 (s, MeO), 3.58 and 3.77 (2d, J=5 Hz, CH2 --CH2), 4.48 (s, CH2). That mixture is used above.
