Abstract
Conclusions1.Selective bromination of 4-oxopentanoic acid in methanol in the presence of urea afforded the 4-oxo-5-bromopentanoic acid methyl ester, a key product for obtaining 4-oxo-5-aminopentanoic acid hydrochloride.2.Alternatively, 4-oxo-5-aminopentanoic acid hydrochloride was synthesized from 1-phthalimido-3-bromoacetone and Meldrum's acid.
