General description

3-Benzylidene-2,4-pentanedione (BPD) can be prepared by reacting benzaldehyde with 2,4-pentanedione in the presence of a base.

Application

3-Benzylidene-2,4-pentanedione may be used in the preparation of:
  • Five membered cyclic oxyphosphoranes by reacting with phosphonite esters.
  • 5-Hydroxy-N-substituted-2H-pyrrol-2-ones by reacting with alkyl isocyanides.
  • 3-Benzylidene-2,4-bis (trimethylsilyloxy)-1,4-pentadiene via trimethylsilylation.
