| Abstract: | 3, 5-Dibromocomanic acid (3, 5-dibromo- -pyrone -2-carboxylic acid) VI and its ethyl ester, hitherto not described in the literature, are synthesized by the following route: diethyl acetonedioxalate (I)  diethyl dibromochelidonate (III) (mono) ethyl dibromochelidonate (IV) diethyl 3, 5-dibromocomanate (V) VI. Direct bromination of diethyl bromochelidonate gives the ester III. 6-Bromocomenic acid and its ethyl ester are prepared, as well as 2-bromo-3-hydroxy - -pyrone. Bromocomanic acid (x-bromo--pyrone-2-carboxylic acid) XVI is synthesized by the following route: I (mono) ethyl chelidonate ethyl comanate comanic acid XVI. Oxonium salts are obtained: acid sulfates of comanic acid and ethyl comanate.For Part VII 1]. |
