Synthesis of 2-Hydroxy-3-methyl-2-cyclo-pentenone, Corylone, from 2-Ketoglutaric Acid
摘要:
Treatment of 2-ketoglutaric acid with diazomethane gave 2-(methoxycarbonyl)-oxiranepropanoic acid methyl ester (2) which lead to 2-hydroxy-2-methyl-glutaric acid dimethyl ester (3) by catalytic hydrogenation, which was further processed to the title compound.
