Preparation of 3-methylidenecyclobutanecarboxylic acid
Step 1:
Preparation of 3-methylidenecyclobutanecarboxylic acid
To a solution of 3-methylidenecyclobutanecarbonitrile (110 g, 1.18 mol) in ethanol (500 mL) and water (500 mL) was added potassium hydroxide (264 g, 4.7 mol) and the resulting mixture was refluxed overnight.
The ethanol was removed under reduced pressure, and then the solution was cooled to below 10° C. and acidified with concentrated HCl to pH 1.
The mixture was extracted with EtOAc (two*500 mL) and the combined organic extracts were dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated under vacuum to afford compound the title compound (132 g, 100% yield) as yellow oil.
