Reaction of a moderately stabilized bismuthonium ylide with 1,2-dicarbonyl compounds. A novel ring enlargement of ortho-quinones to 3-hydroxytropones

Abstract

Triphenylbismuthonium 2-oxoalkylide 2, generated in situ from salt 1 in THF at low temperature, readily reacts with 1,2-dicarbonyl compounds 3 to give 2,3-diacyloxiranes 4 or 2-acyl-3-hydroxytropones 5 depending on the structure of the electrophiles involved.
