S. Roche et al., On the reaction of Meldrum's acid with N-trimethylsilylanilines substituted by electron withdrawing groups, J HETERO CH, 36(4), 1999, pp. 1073-1075
The reaction of Meldrum's acid with silylated anilines substituted by an el
ectron withdrawing group easily yields the corresponding N-phenyl malonamic
acid, when the reaction is performed under high vacuum in dichlorobenzene.
