Literature References

Darzens condensation (see Ethyl­ chloroacetate, A15554) with carbonyl compounds gives t-butyl glycidic esters, which readily undergo decarboxylative elimination to the homologous aldehydes. See, for example: Rec. Trav. Chim., 89, 18 (1970). The reaction with imines has also been used in the preparation of aziridines by a nitrogen analogue of the Darzens reaction: J. Chem. Soc., Chem. Commun., 602 (1977).

Notes

Store in cool place. Keep container tightly closed in a dry and well-ventilated place. Containers which are opened must be carefully resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage. Moisture sensitive. Incompatible with strong bases and strong oxidizing agents.Other References:Beilstein: 1753006Merck: 14,1563UN#: UN2929
