Conclusions
-
1.
The methyl esters of dehydroacetic acid and its analogs, and also the 4-amino derivatives corresponding to them, form aminoresorcinols when treated with secondary amines.
-
2.
A study of the sequence of the steps of this synthesis indicates that it has a biogenetic similarity to the in vivo synthesis of certain natural phenols.
