Sodium metal (2.411 g, 105 mmol) was dissolved in ethanol (50 mL). The solution was heated to reflux followed by addition of a mixture of 1-cyclopropylethanone (8.4 g, 100 mmol) and diethyl oxalate (14.59 g, 100 mmol) dropwise over 30 minutes. The reaction mixture was heated at reflux for an additional 2 h, and then allowed to cool to room temperature over a 2 d period. The contents were diluted with water (200 mL) and acidified by dropwise addition of 6N HCl. The contents were extracted with EtOAc (3×75 mL), washed with water, brine, dried over MgSO4, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. The final product was collected as 14.3 g (74%).
