Propiolic acid nitrile

Amongst the most commonly used reagents are DMAD [2280, 2419, 2422, 2523, 2830], bis(methyUhio)methyIenemalonic acid derivatives [3491, 3571], propiolic acid nitrile [2280], 3-methoxyacrylic ester or nitrile [3704], 2- or... 

Other reactions studied include reduction of the triple bond of a-acetylenic esters and nitriles by tributyltin hydride in methanol electroreductive cyclization of acetylenic halides at a mercury cathode the trimerization and tetramerization of cyclo-octyne in the presence of various transition metals the kinetics of bromination of alka-l,3-diynes, of permanganate oxidation of acetylenedicarboxylic acid, and of iodination of propiolic acid the participation of the triple bond in reactions of various acetylenes of the general formula (225) and the trimerization of but-2-yne with tolyl-palladium chloride to give a [Pg.48]

Derivatives of Y-hydroxyacetylenic acids, which are useful intermediates in the synthesis of butenolides, are prepared from propiolic acid and ester anions. Alk-2-ynoic and 2-allenic esters are prepared by the oxidation of 3,4-disubstituted 2-pyrazolin-5-ones with lead(iv) tetra-acetate in the absence and presence of BF3 respectively. Py-Unsaturated esters are produced in high yield by the palladium-catalysed decarboxylation-carbonylation of allylic carbonates. Magnesium enolates of esters react with nitriles to give (Z)-3-amino-alk-2-enoates. Enol lactones react with diethyl methoxycarbonylmethylphosphonate to give cyclic unsaturated keto-esters (Scheme 66). ... 

Better yields may be obtained from vinylpyridines and alkyl propiolates, as can be seen from the conversion of 36 to the cycl[3,2,2]-azine (lw).41 Reaction of a-(bismethylthio)methylene-2-pyridineaceto-nitrile and ethyl bromoacetate using triethylamine afforded the indolizine derivative (37). Dimethyl l-carbamoyl-2-methylthiocycl-[3,2,2]azine-3,4-dicarboxylate (Iz) was synthesized by allowing dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate to react with indolizine derivative 38, which was obtained by decarboxylation of 37 using sulfuric acid in presence of palladium-on-charcoal as catalyst [Eq. (6)].42... 

The cyclization of 4-substituted 5-hexenyl iodides proceeds well, leading to cyclopentylz-inc iodides that can be trapped with various electrophiles such as 3-iodo-2-cyclohexenone, iodine, acid chlorides, allylic halides, and ethyl propiolate (carbocupration) (Scheme 1) Various substitution patterns allow a successful cyclization. Also, a range of functional groups like esters or nitriles are tolerated in the ring closure (Scheme 8). 

Pyrolysis of pyridine derivatives is a method for allylic and benzylic deamination the preparation of nitriles from aldehydes, and the preparation of isocyanates from acid chlorides or hydrazides Flash vacuum pyrolysis continues to yield interesting reactions and products. Recently, it has been reported that quite sensitive acetylene derivatives can be obtained by this method from 4-alkylideneisoxazol-5(4H)-ones by ring degradation. On the other hand, 2 carbamyl azide molecules cyclize under these conditions to form l,2,4-triazolidine-3,5-dione 1,2-ylids . 2H-Cyclohepta[b]furan-2-ones have been obtained by ring expansion of phenyl propiolates...
