Abstract

CH3 XI highly substituted products, HC= CC (RIRz)-C (R3)(COOCzH5) 2. These compounds may be used, as shown in Fig. 1, for the preparation of substituted pyrrolidines and various saturated and unsaturated acids and amines. In addition to this application we were interested also in studying the hydration of the acetylenic acids. Recent work in thew laboratories4 has demo!]-strated a remarkable facilitation of hydration in acetylenes ...
