Abstract

An efficient synthesis of (Z)- or (E)-N-acryl butenedioic monoimide derivatives with high regio- and stereoselectivity by the multicomponent reaction of acetylenic esters/ketones, isocyanides, and carboxylic acids is described. The E-isomers, obtained in high yields via E/Z isomerization, are also reported.

Key words

high regio- and stereoselectivity - multicomponent reactions - isocyanides - acetylenic esters/ketones - N-acryl butenedioic monoimides
