Reaction Steps

As described in Example 1, but with 160 g of an 8.85% solution of Co2 (CO)8 in ethanol, 2.7 moles out of 4 moles of chloroacetic acid ethyl ester are reacted at 7.5 at. CO and 55° C. in 51/4 hours. 400 g of malonic acid diethyl ester is obtained (93% yield) and 3.5 g of acetic acid ethyl ester plus 160 g of chloroacetic acid ethyl ester.
