Methyl 2-Azidomethyl-3-(2-ethynylphenyl)-2-propenoate (4a).
To a stirred solution of 3a (0.78 g, 3 mmoles) in dimethyl sul-
foxide (15 ml) was added sodium azide (0.29 g, 4.5 mmoles) at
room temperature. After stirring at the same temperature for 15
hours the reaction mixture was diluted with water (10 ml) and
extracted with dichloromethane (3 x 20 ml). The combined

A stirred solution of 4a (0.24 g, 1 mmole) in toluene (3 ml)
was heated at reflux temperature for 8 hours and the solvent was
evaporated in vacuo. The residue was chromatographed on silica
