Abstract
AbstractThe title work proceeds in five steps and 16% overall yield from sodium [1‐14C]acetate, which was converted by bromination followed by ethoxide displacement and reaction with phthaloyl dichloride to ethoxy[1‐14C]acetyl chloride. The thermal[2+2]cycloaddition of tetraethoxyethene with ethoxy[1‐14C]ketene, derived from base induced elimination from ethoxy[1‐14]acetyl chloride following the method of Bellus, provided an 80% yield of 1‐(ethoxy[1‐14C]acetoxy)‐2,3,3,4,4‐pentaethoxy‐l‐[1‐14C]‐cyclobutene. Acid hydrolysis and liquid‐liquid extraction afforded [14C]squaric acid.
