Abstract

Based on a modification of the Doebner–Knoevenagel reaction, a practical and highly efficient synthesis of a,b-unsaturated esters with excellent regio- and stereoselectivity was developed. The reactions are catalyzed by 4-dimethylaminopyridine in DMF at room temperature or below. Both aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes can readily be used in the process.
