General description

Dimethyl glutaconate, also known as dimethyl 2-pentenoate, is a diester. It reacts with salicaldehyde in the presence of piperidine to form a coumarin-fused electron deficient diene.[1]

Application

Dimethyl glutaconate may be used in the synthesis of:
  • dimethyl 3-[(Z)-1-propenyl]glutarate[2]
  • phenanthridinone derivatives[3]
  • substituted benzenes[4]
