Reactions of ethylcinnamates with arylacetamides gave the corresponding 2,6-diketo-3,4-diarylpiperidine (1a-o) in addition to the corresponding cinnamides (2a-o).The latter two are formed from the intermediates of the Claisen condensation of the reactants.On the other hand and contrary to the above results, condensation of p-methoxycinnamate with arylacetamides gave only p-methoxycinnamide in quantitative yields with the corresponding arylacetates.
