“…As seen for the allene-1,1 -dicarboxamides 25, the allene-1,1-dicarboxanilides 47 are readily available via transallenation from the corresponding l,3-alkylanilino-l,3-diethoxyallenes 46 and the disubstituted malonyl dichlorides 24, with the lactones 48 being formed as by-products (see Schemes 11 and 14) [8].
