Reactions of 4-Benzoyl-5-[(E)-2-phenyl-1-ethenyl]-2,3-dihydro-2,3-furandione with Aromatic Aminonucleophiles

Abstract

4-Benzoyl-5-[(E)-2-phenyl-1-ethenyl]-2,3-dihydro-2-,3-furandione (1) reacts with various aminonucleophiles (2a–g) and gives the hexadienoic acid derivatives (6-phenyl-3-benzoylarylamino-2-oxo-3,5-hexadieonic acids) (3a–g). The structures of the synthesized compounds were determined by being interpreted by their elemental analysis and IR, ¹H- and ¹³C-NMR spectra.
