Abstract
The 3-oxonitrile1 as well as the 2-benzylidene-3-oxonitrile4 on reaction with benzylidenemalononitrile or malononitrile, respectively, afford 2-amino-4H-pyran derivative3 in high yield. In contrast, reactions of1 and4 with ethyl benzylidenecyanoacetate (6) or ethylcyanoacetate, respectively, predominantly lead to a carbocyclic compound, which is also obtained as main product on attempted condensation of1 with benzaldehyde. Based on spectroscopic data, structure5 is proposed for the novel compound; its formation is interpreted in terms of piperidine-catalysed addition of1 to4 and subsequent intramolecularMichael addition. Reaction mechanisms for the conversion of1 and6 or4 and ethylcyanoacetate to5 are discussed.
