Mmh. Arief et al., STUDIES ON YLPURIMIDINYLTHIO]-BETA-(4-PHENYLBENZOYL)PROPIONIC ACID AND THE BIOLOGICAL-ACTIVITY OF SOME PRODUCTS, Phosphorus, sulfur and silicon and the related elements, 91(1-4), 1994, pp. 1-7
beta-(4-phenylbenzoyl)acrylic acid I reacted with ethoxynaphthalenyl)-
4-phenylpyrimidine-2(1H)thione to furnish (2'-methoxynaphthalenyl)-4-p
henylpyrimidinylthio]- beta-(4-phenylbenzoyl)propionic acid II. Dehydr
ation of acid II aforded furanone derivative III. The behaviour of III
towards hydrazine hydrate, hydroxylamine hydrochloride, primary amine
s, aromatic hydrocarbons (under Friedel-Crafts conditions) and carbon
nucleophiles (under Grignard conditions) has been investigated.
