Abstract

The Certain of the &hydroxy esters been effected by means of lithium amide. certain cases (eg, with nitro ketones), more generally applicable than the Reformatsky reaction. esters produced in our method were, in general, converted to a, O-unsaturated acids by treatment with mineral acids. t-butyl@-hydroxy esters from aromatic nitro ketones were converted to &hydroxy acids. were dehydrated to form the a,@-unsaturated esters.
