Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of diethyl 3-hydroxy-1,1-cyclobutanedicarboxylate (0.268 g, 0.00116 mol) in pyridine (7 mL) was cooled to 0° C. Methanesulfonyl chloride (0.11 mL, 0.160 g, 0.00140 mol) was added dropwise, keeping the temperature below 2° C. The mixture was stirred for four hours, and then poured into ice water (20 mL) and extracted with ethyl ether (2×10 mL). The combined organic layers were washed with water (3×10 mL) and brine (10 mL). The organic layer was dried over magnesium sulfate and the solvent was removed in vacuo to give diethyl 3-[(methylsulfonyl)oxy]-1,1-cyclobutanedicarboxylate (0.302 g, 0.00102 mol) as a yellow oil.:
