摘要

Abstract Cycloadditions of ketene acetals (R 1 R 2 C= C (OR) 2) with carbonyl compounds (R 3 COR 4) are strongly promoted by increase or pressure. At 12 kbar oxetanes are even obtained from very polar ketene acetals (R 1, R 2= H, H or H, Cl) and-in the presence of a Lewis acid-with unactivated ketones (R 3 and R 4= alkyl). The reaction proceeds via a cisoid dipolar transition state; when relevant mainly trans-substituted oxetanes are formed.
