Mode opératoire

A mixture of 3-cyclopropyl-1-(2-fluoro-4-methylsulphonylphenyl)-propan-1,3-dione (7.4 g), triethyl orthoformate (8.5 g) and acetic anhydride was stirred and heated at reflux for 4 hours. The mixture was evaporated to dryness. Xylene was added and the mixture was re-evaporated to give 3-cyclopropyl-2-ethoxymethylene-1-(2-fluoro-4-methylsulphonylphenyl)-propan-1,3-dione (8.8 g) as a red oil which was not further purified.
