Selective hydrolysis and decarboxylation of methyl [1-(2-cyanoethyl)-2-oxocyclopentyl]- carboxylate (4) were studied. The ring-opened byproducts, dimethyl-2-(2-cyanoethyl)adipate and 2-(2-cyanoethyl)adipic acid, were obtained primarily in an alkaline medium. While, in an acid medium, the hydrolysis and decarboxylation of 4 were studied since the cyano group could also be hydrolyzed. 3-(2-Oxocyclopentyl)propanenitrile was yielded in 84.0% at 50 ℃ after 24 h in the medium of 4 mol•L-1 HCl after optimization.

Key words: 3-(2-oxocyclopentyl)propanenitrile, hydrolysis, decarboxylation, methyl [1-(2-cyanoethyl)-2-oxocyclopentyl]carboxylate
