Reaction Steps

Bromine (17.6 g, 0.11 mol) was added to a stirred solution of benzyl methyl malonate (20.8 g, 0.10 mol) in carbon tetrachloride. After 30 minutes the solvent was removed under reduced pressure to give 28 g of product (85% pure by gc, containing 7% benzyl methyl malonate) which was used without further purification.
