I'm wondering what precursors are used, and what reactions are needed, in order to synthesize ethyl 3-oxo-4-phenylbutanoate.
Ive put it into chat gpt, and I know it is wrong, but it says a claisen condensation of acetophenone with ethyl acetate. Other search results have said a claisen condensation with ethyl phenylacetate and ethyl acetate.
I would just like to know how to synthesize this product.
