Monoethyl 2-[2-(phenyl)ethyl]malonic acid (47.2 g, 200 mole) was added to 40 mL round bottom flask fitted with a Teflon coated stirring bar. Piperidine (3 mL) and paraformaldehyde (8.4 g, 280 mmole) were added to the flask and the flask was heated to 55-60° C., until gas evolution ceased. TLC indicated that no starting material remained. The solution was worked up by removing the solvent under reduced pressure. Water (50 mL) and enough 12N HCl was added to the flask to acidify the mixture (pH>3). The mixture was extracted with ether (3×50 mL) and back extracted with brine. The solution was dried over MgSO4 and filtered. The reaction mixture was shown to be clean by NMR and TLC and used without further purification. Recovered 36.3 g material (89% yield).
