Abstract

The reactivity, ready availability, and low cmt of malonic esters combine to make them attractive starting materials in many synthetic schemes. This paper continues some initial investigations originally designed to produce precursors to dodecahedrane; in the work reported here, methyl esters were used rather than ethyl esters because melting points are generally higher. 4J2 This paper furnishes data on the pK, of la, the alkylation of its ...
