Abstract

Levoglucosenone reacts with malononitrile to form a product with a complex structure, which contains two levoglucosenone molecules and three malononitrile molecules. The conclusion about the structure of the product was based on the data of NMR, IR, and UV spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. The suggested reaction mechanism involves cascade cyclization.
