Application
- Ethyl 2-methylacetoacetate is used as a substrate in the rhenium-catalyzed synthesis of multisubstituted aromatic compounds.
- It can be employed in the synthesis of coumarin derivatives via Pechmann condensation.
- It undergoes dehydration to yield conjugated alkynyl and allenyl esters.
- It is also used in the total synthesis of chlorotonil A, yangjinhualine A, (+)- and (−)-saudin.

Seven fungi, which are found to reduce ethyl 3-oxobutanoate in high yields, were tested for their reducing ability for ethyl 2-methyl 3-oxobutanoate. We obtained some interesting findings. In particular, Penicillium purpurogenum reduced ethyl 2-methyl 3-oxobutanoate to the corresponding alcohols with
