Methanol → Methyl 3-oxovalerate
Participants
| Role | Name | HCID | Charge |
|---|---|---|---|
| Reactant | Methanol | HCID 887 | — |
| Reactant | 3-Oxopentanoic acid | HCID 439684 | — |
| Product | Methyl 3-oxovalerate | HCID 121699 | — |
Reaction Steps
The β-keto acid (14) is then esterified with an alkanol of formula R3 -OH to yield a β-keto ester (15). For example, 3-oxopentanoic acid is heated at reflux with methanol to yield methyl 3-oxopentanoate (15) (Scheme V, Step 3).
