A new, simple and short route to 2-(6-methoxycarbonylhexyl)-cyclopent-2-en-1-one (overall yield:33percent) starting from ethyl-10-undecenoate is reported.The main feature of this synthesis is a new cobalt-catalyzed carbonylation of the intermediate epoxide, which occurs with satisfactory yield under very mild conditions.
