Abstract

The Diels-Alder reaction of 2-substituted 4-(trimethylsilyloxy)oxazoles, which were prepared in situ from trimethylsilyldiazomethane and acyl isocyanates, with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate or ethyl propiolate gave furan-3,4-dicarboxylic or furan-3-carboxylic esters in good yields.

Key words

acyl isocyanates - Diels-Alder reaction - furans - oxazoles - trimethylsilyldiazomethane
