Reaction Steps

A solution of lithium isopropylamidide was prepared from 300 cm3 butyl lithium 1.5 M in hexane and 52 g of diisopropylamine. At -40° C. 62.4 g (0.4 mole) of ethyl cyclohexyl-carboxylate were added, then at -80° C. 17.6 g of acetaldehyde were also added. The solvent was evaporated off and the mixture was poured into acid ice water. After extraction with benzene the ether was distilled off and a colourless liquid was obtained.
