Abstract
Substituted isopropylidene methylenemalonates (Knoevenagel type produc ts) (1-7) derived from Meldrum's acid (2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxan-4,6-dio ne) are readily reduced by borohydride exchange resin under mild react ion conditions to give 8-14 in high yields and in a state of high puri ty. The advantage of this method lies in its simplicity of performance , high yield of pure products and regeneration of resin to its initial activity in a single step.
