Synthesis of Pyran-2-ones by Reaction of 1,1-Bis(trimethylsilyloxy)ketene Acetals with 3-Silyloxyalk-2-en-1-ones

Abstract

Functionalized pyran-2-ones were prepared in two steps by the reaction of 1,1-bis(trimethylsilyloxy)ketene acetals with 3-silyloxyalk-2-en-1-ones.

Key words

cyclizations - ketene acetals - pyran-2-ones - silyl enol ethers
