Abstract
In 1952, Carroll and Bader reported that diketene and acetone react to afford a 1: l adduct, 2, 2, 6-trimethyl-4H-1, 3-dioxin-Cone (l), and that this latter compound would acetoacetylate alcohols in the presence of p-toluenesulfonic acid. 3 Carroll found dioxinone 1 to be slightly more reactive than acetoace@ te esters but much less reactive than diketene. It did not appear that acetoacetylation with dioxinone 1 offered any advantages over ...
