4-hydroxy-3-nitrohexane (14.7 g, 100 mmol), acetic anhydride (14.8 ml, 157.3 mmol), chloroform (50 ml), and several drops of concentrated sulfuric acid were fed into a reaction vessel, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 10 hours. After the completion of the reaction, chloroform (50 ml) was added, and the whole was washed with water, a 5% aqueous solution of baking soda, and a saturated salt solution. The organic layer was dried with anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure to yield 4-acetoxy-3-nitrohexane (16.3 g, 86% yield).
