Procedure
Tetrahydrothiapyran-4-carboxaldehyde (1.5g) in ethyl acetate (10 ml) was treated with methyl-4-chloroacetoacetate (1.5g), 4A sieve (3g) and the mixture cooled in an ice-bath. Piperidine (3 drops) and acetic acid (3 drops) were now added and the mixture stirred at 0-5° for 45 min. Excess ethyl acetate was added and the organic solution washed with 1M hydrochloric acid. After washing the extracts with water they were dried over anhydrous magnesium sulphate and evaporated to give a colourless oil. Chromatography o silica gel using ethyl acetate-hexane mixtures gave the title compound mixture Z/E (1:2)) as a colourless oil (2g). νmax (CHCl3) 1720 and 1630 cm-1 ; δ(CDCl3) inter alia 3.82(s) and 3.87(s), 6.84 (d, J=10Hz) and 6.94 (d, J™10Hz) m/e 262 (M+).
