Procedure

Combine phenylacetonitrile (175.5 g, 1.5 mol) and tetrahydrofuran (1.95 L). Cool to about 0° C. Add dropwise over about 15 minutes, a solution of sodium bis(trimethylsilyl)amide (3.2 L, 1 M in tetrahydrofuran, 3.2 mol). When the addition is complete, warm the reaction mixture to ambient temperature and allow to stir for 1 hour. Transfer the above solution over about 45 minutes into a cooled (about −20° C.) solution of ethyl bromoacetate (510 g, 3.05 mol) in tetrahydrofuran (1.95 L). Warm to ambient temperature and allow to stir. After 18 hours, dilute with diethyl ether (3 L) and water (1.5 L). Extract twice with saturated aqueous solution of ammonium chloride (2.25 L) and then brine. Dry the organic layer over MgSO4, filter, and concentrate in vacuo to obtain a residue. Distill the residue by bulb-to-bulb distillation to give the title compound: bp; 180-190° C. at 30 mm of Hg. Elemental Analysis calculated for C16H19NO4: C, 66.43; H, 6.62; N, 4.84. Found: C, 66.34; H, 6.57; N, 4.82.
