Enol Ethers, XIV. Acylation of Keto Enol Ethers with Malonyl Dichloride - A New Synthesis of Phloroglucinols

Phloroglucinols 4 and/or 4-hydroxy-2H-pyran-2-ones 5 are formed from keto enol ethers 1 and malonyl dichloride (2a) in high yields.Since the pyranones 5 can be smoothly converted into phloroglucinols, the reaction of 1 with 2a represents a new, facile synthetic route to phloroglucinols.The reaction proceeds via formation of a chloro carbonyl ketene 8 and its subsequent reaction with 1.The product ratio 4:5 is rationalized in terms of substituent effects in the enol ether substrate.
