Abstract: | Summary. Stable crystalline phosphorus ylides are obtained in excellent yields from the 1:1:1 addition reaction between 1-methylparabanic
acid (1-methylimidazoline-2,4,5-trione) and dialkyl acetylenedicarboxylates in the presence of triphenylphosphine. These ylides
exist in solution as a mixture of two geometric isomers. This is due to the restricted rotation around the carbon–carbon partial
double bond resulting from conjugation of the ylide moiety with the adjacent carbonyl group. These ylides undergo smooth intramolecular
Wittig reaction followed by an electrocyclic ring opening to produce dialkyl (E)-2-(1-methyl-2,5-dioxo-3-imidazolin-4-yl)-but-2-enedioates in good yields.
