A number of routes have been suggested for the prebiotic synthesis of uracil involving the reaction of urea with malic acid, propiolic acid, cyanoacetylene and others. Cyanoacetylene has been detected in the interstellar medium as well as simulated prebiotic experiments.

Only 2% of the known natural products with acetylenic bonds are alpha-alkynoates. Their polarized, conjugated triple bond is an optimal target for an enzymic hydration. Therefore they are good substrates for the enzymes involved in metabolism of acetylenic compounds, resulting

The adduct produced in the reaction between alkyl isocyanides and dialkyl acetylenedicarboxylates was trapped by 2,2,5-trimethyl-1,3-dioxane-4,6-dione (methyl Meldrum's acid), to afford highly functionalized ketenimines in good yields.

Protonation of the reactive intermediates produced in the reaction between alkyl(aryl) isocyanides and dialkyl acetylenedicarboxylates by indan-1,3-dione leads to vinylnitrilium cations, which undergo carbon centered Michael type addition with the conjugate base of the CH-acid to produce functionalized 5-oxo-4,5-dihydroindeno[1,2-b]pyrans.
