Methyl 0-(2,2,3-trimethylcyclopropyl)acrylate (II) and 1-methoxycarbonyl-2,2-dimethyl-3-(l-propenyl)cyclopropane (12) were prepared from methyl fnms.frons-sorbate (10) according to the procedures described above. The isomers were separated by glpc using a 20 ft X 0.25 in. column of 10% SE-30 at 160°( At of 10, 7.8 min; 11, 16.4 min; 12, 11.8 min.Methyl 0-(2,2,3-trimethylcyclopropyl)acrylate ( 11): uv Xmax 242 nm; ir i/max 1725 cm""1; nmr 1.2 (9 H's, CCq^3 and CHSCH), 3.65 (s, COOCHa), 5.85 (d, J = 15 Hz, C=CH-COOCHa), 6.4 (m, C=CHCH); mass spectrum m/e 168 (M+).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
