Two ketene equivalents (5 and 35) have been developed for use in the Diels-Alder reaction. These dienophiles exhibit a marked increase in reactivity in comparison with the more conventional acetoxyacrylonitrile. Conversions of the cycloadducts to the requisite ketones occurs under mild, and moderate to high yielding conditions.
