Starting with methyl propanoate, how could you prepare 4-methyl-3-heptanone?

A racemic mixture of 2-methyl-1-phenyl-1-butanone is formed when (R)-2-methyl-1-phenyl-1-butanone is dissolved in an acidic or basic aqueous solution. Give an example of another ketone that undergoes acid- or base-catalyzed racemization.
