Abstract
The Diels-Alder reaction of dimethyl furandicarboxylate 6 with DMAD is inve stigated and the exo-exo bisadduct 8 is fully characterized. Monoadduct 7, 8, and test system 12 are cyclopropanated with diazomethane giving 10, 11, and 14. Then 7, 8, and 12 are treated with the "latently acceptor substitut ed" diazomethane 17. After appropriate transformations cyanocyclopropyl der ivatives 18 and 19 are obtained from 7 and 12. Unexpectedly, 8 also gives 1 9 by a retro-Diels-Alder reaction thereby frustrating planned further work. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
