Aspects are presented of the acylation of amines, alcohols, and thiols with 5-(α-amino-α′-hydroxy)methylene Meldrum acids. We placed special emphasis on the acylation reaction of secondary amines with 5-(α-amino-α′-hydroxy)methylene Meldrum acids, which, because of their basicity, caused problems concerning salt formation with a Meldrum acid derivative. We found that secondary amines, which react at the slowest rate and give a poor yield with 5-(α-amino-α′-hydroxy)methylene Meldrum's acid, react quickly and with high yields with the same reagent in the presence 1 to 3 equivalents of TMSCl. Acylation with this derivative of Meldrum acid was optimized for such factors as reaction temperature, solvent polarity, and acidity of the environment. We have prepared a wide range of nonsymmetrical malononic acid diamids, esters, and thioesters of malonamic acid. Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
