Va. Mamedov et al., DARZENS SYNTHESIS OF 2,2-DICHLORO-3-(2-FURYL)-3-HYDROXYPROPIONIC ACID-DERIVATIVES, Russian chemical bulletin, 43(8), 1994, pp. 1368-1372
Esters and amides of 2,2-dichloro-3-(2-furyl)-3-hydroxypropionic acid
were prepared by the reaction of furfural with dichloroacetic acid der
ivatives under the conditions of the Darzens condensation. The structu
res of the reaction products were confirmed by their H-1 NMR and IR sp
ectra and chemical transformations.
