The diester 2 was prepared by the addition of 2-methoxyethanol to 1 according to the reported procedure [].
2-Methoxyethanol (0.16 ml, 2 mmol) was added to a solution of 1 (293 mg, 1 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (5 ml). The mixture was left at r.t. for 30 min and filtered through a pad of silica gel (EtOAc) afforded the title compound 2, a colourless oil: 340 mg (99 %).
