An efficient method for the preparation of mono α-aryl derivatives of diethyl malonate and ethyl cyaeoacetate using ethyl-1-imidazole carbamate (EImC)

摘要

An efficient method for the synthesis of mono a-aryl derivatives of diethyl malonate and ethyl cyanoac-etate using ethyl-1-imidazole carbamate (EImC) has been described. Using this method many sterically hindered and highly substituted mono α-aryl derivatives of diethyl malonate and ethyl cyanoacetate were synthesized in high yield.
