Reaction Steps
Ethyl 7-acetyl-7-(4-cyanobenzoyl)-8-oxononanoate (3.5 g) was dissolved in trifluoroacetic acid (12.6 ml) and the mixture was stirred at 20° C. for 15 minutes. The mixture was partitoned between ethyl acetate and water. The organic layer was separated, washed with water, aqueous sodium bicarbonate and brine, dried over MgSO4 (magnesium sulfate), and evaporated to give ethyl 7-(4-cyanobenzoyl)-8-oxononanoate (2.25 g) as an oil.
