Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

The two regioisomeric β-ketoesters obtained by ring expansion of a cycloalkanone with ethyl diazoacetate and a Lewis acid give the same cycloalkyne upon exposure of the corresponding isoxazolinone to sodium nitrite / aqueous acetic acid and ferrous sulfate.
