Expert Solution
Step 1: Malonate ester synthesis

Diethyl malonate ester contains an active methylene group, (CH2 group attached with two carbonyl groups). In the presence of a base, the diethyl malonate ester forms a malonate anion, which acts as a nucleophile and gives a nucleophilic substitution reaction with the alkyl bromide.
