Dieckmann condensation

Once you have the β-ketoester precursor, perform a Dieckmann condensation. This involves heating the precursor in the presence of a strong base (typically an alkoxide, like sodium ethoxide or potassium tert-butoxide) in an appropriate solvent. The base deprotonates the β-ketoester, leading to the formation of an enolate ion, which then undergoes intramolecular cyclization.
