METHOD FOR PRODUCING CYCLOPROPANECARBOXYLIC ACID ESTER

摘要

A method for producing a cyclopropanecarboxylate represented by formula (III):wherein, R represents a chain hydrocarbon group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms optionally having at least one member selected from the group consisting of halogen atoms, acyl groups having 2 to 7 carbon atoms optionally having a substituent, alkoxy groups having 1 to 7 carbon atoms optionally having a substituent, alkylthio groups having 1 to 3 carbon atoms and phenyl groups optionally having a substituent, a cyclic hydrocarbon group having 3 to 10 carbon atoms or a hydrogen atom;comprising reacting a cyclopropanecarboxylate represented by formula (I):wherein, R represents the same meaning as described above; and 2-cyanopropionic acid in the presence of a base.
