Procedure
A mixture of 5,6-dihydro-4H-pyrrolo[1,2-c]oxadiazol-7-ium-3-olate (355.4 mg, 2.82 mmol) and ethyl propiolate (0.87 mL, 8.46 mmol) in xylene (10 mL) in a round-bottom flask equipped with a condenser was heated to 125° C. overnight. The reaction mixture was concentrated in vacuo, adsorbed onto silica and purified by column chromatography (0-100% EtOAc in Heptane) to afford the title compound as a yellow oil (161 mg, 32%, more polar regioisomer). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 7.90 (s, 1H), 4.27 (q, J=7.1 Hz, 2H), 4.16 (t, J=7.3 Hz, 2H), 3.09 (t, J=7.4 Hz, 2H), 2.70-2.60 (m, 2H), 1.33 (t, J=7.1 Hz, 3H). LC-MS (ESI): m/z=181.1 (M+H)+.
