The thermal cyclization of 2,2-dimethyl-5-(2-aryl-2-oxoethyl)-1,3-dioxan-4,6-diones forms 5-aryl-β,γ-butenolides.Regioselective chlorination of 2,2-dimethyl-5--1,3-dioxane-4,6-diones by SO2Cl2 gives the 5-chloro derivatives, thes

A general procedure for the monoalkylation of Meldrum's acid (1) is described.Meldrum's acid anion in DMF is slowly added to alkyl halides in DMF to give monoalkylated products.Lower primary as well as highly reactive halides give a mixture of mono- and b
