Selective C-acylation of CH-active dicarbonyl compounds with ketenylidenetriphenylphosphorane: syntheses and structures of 3-phosphoranylideneacyltetronic acids, 3-phosphoranylideneacyl-4-oxocoumarins, and 4-phosphoranylideneacylpyrazol-5-ones
4-hydroxycoumarins furnish the respective 3-acylylidic derivatives, and pyrazol-5-ones exclusively yield the corresponding 4-acylylidic compounds despite the possibility of tautomerism. X-Ray single crystal structure and NMR analyses of the product tricarbonyl ylides are presented and structure–reactivity interdependencies are discussed. As a rule, compounds with wide-spread conjugation of the π-system like 9/13 do
The present disclosure provides conjugate structures and compound structures used to produce these conjugates. The disclosure also encompasses methods of production of such conjugates, as well as methods of using the same.
