Reaction Steps

The procedure is as in Example 2 for the preparation of ethyl 4-dimethylamino-2-oxo-3-butenoate, starting with 1-phenyl-1,2-propanedione (25 g) and N,N-dimethylformamide diethyl acetal (28.3 g). After purification by chromatography on a silica column with ethyl acetate as eluent, 4-dimethylamino-1-phenyl-3-butene-1,2-dione (9.3 g), m.p. 88° C., is obtained.
