Reaction Steps

A nitrogen-degassed solution of 33.5 grams (0.69 mole) of 2-butyne and 20.0 grams (0.13 mole) of dimethyl diazomalonate in approximately 325 grams of hexafluorobenzene was photolyzed for approximately 100 hours, at 0° C.-5° C., employing a 100-watt Hanovia mercury lamp in a manner similar to that described in Example XCVI Part A. Similar workup of the reaction mixture afforded 10.8 grams (0.06 mole) of dimethyl 2,3-dimethyl-2-cyclopropene-1,1-dicarboxylate. NMR analysis of the product indicated the following:
