Catalytic decomposition of diazoacetylacetone, ethyl diazoacetate, and diethyl diazomalonate effected by dirhodium tetraacetate in the presence of 3(2H)-oxoisothiazole-1,1-dioxides resulted in O-alkylation of amide carbonyl of the heterocycle affording the corresponding enol ethers in preparative yield. The reaction occurred chemoselectively. The 1,3-dicarbonyl derivatives of 3-hydroxyisothiazole-1,1-dioxides obtained in contrast to analogous N-alkylated products are not enolized in solutions and in crystals. |
