(20 ml) was added at 0 ºC. The resulting solid was collected, washed with water
and ether and dried under vacuum to give 2.17 g (94 %) of the butenetetraester Me

L2)
A mixture of butene tetraester Me
4
L2 (1.00 g, 2.12 mmol), KOH (0.475 g, 8.46 mmol), methanol
(15 ml) and distilled water (15 ml) were stirred under N
2
at 60 ºC for 48 hours. After this time,
the reaction mixture was filtered to remove any unreacted starting materials. HCl (6 M, 25 ml)
was then added dropwise at 0 ºC. The precipitate was collected, washed with water and dried
under vacuum to give 0.556 g (63 %) of butenetetraacid H
