Abstract
A simple two-step synthesis of 4-methoxycarbonyl-2(SH)-furanone consis ting of formylation of dimethyl 2-(bromomethyl) fumarate, followed by acid catalysed transesterification in methanol was carried out. It led to the corresponding substituted furanone in 67% global yield. (C) 19 97, Published by Elsevier Science Ltd.
