Procedure

To a solution of 4-[2-(4-chloro-phenyl)-5-ethyl-thiazol-4-yl]-10-oxa-tricyclo[5.2.1.0*2,6*]decane-3,5-dione (100 mg, 0.18 mmol) in DCM (5 ml) and triethylamine (140 μl, 1 mmol) is added the cyclopropane carbonyl chloride (91 μl, 1 mmol) at room temperature. The reaction mixture is stirred overnight at room temperature. Silica gel is added to the crude reaction mixture, the solvent is evaporated under reduced pressure and the residue is purified by flash chromatography on silica gel to give cyclopropanecarboxylic acid-4-[2-(4-chloro-phenyl)-5-ethyl-thiazol-4-yl]-5-oxo-10-oxa-tricyclo[5.2.1.0*2,6*]dec-3-en-3-yl ester (102 mg).
