Procedure

Triethylamine (3.4 ml, 25 mmol) was added dropwise to a methylene chloride solution of 2-nitrobenzoyl chloride (3.5 g, 19 mmol) and 5,5-dimethylcyclohexanedione (2.4 g, 19 mmol). After stirring for one hour at room temperature an additional 3 equivalents of triethylamine and 0.4 ml acetone cyanohydrin were added. The solution was stirred for 2.5 hours, then washed with 2N HCl and extracted with 5% potassium carbonate solution. The basic extracts were acidified with 2N HCl and extracted with ether. The ether portion was washed with saturated sodium chloride solution, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and concentrated under vacuum. The residue was recrystallized from ethyl acetate yielding 2.0 g of the desired compound (m.p. 130°-133° C.) which was identified as such by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, infrared spectroscopy and mass spectroscoy.
