Reactions of Ketene Acetals. IV. A New Synthesis of α-Pyrones. III
A simple one-step synthesis of α-pyrones and 3-chloro-α-pyrones from β-functionalized α, β-enones and ketene acetals has been devised. The method has also been adapted to the preparation of some 4-methoxy-α-pyrones. Finally the mechanism of the reaction has been investigated.
