Application
- Alkylation at the α-carbon of ethyl acetoacetate followed by hydrolysis and decarboxylation can afford a variety of methyl ketones.
- It also undergoes acylation at the α-carbon in the presence of MgCl2 and pyridine to give synthetically important intermediates.
- It can be used in Knoevenagel condensation with aliphatic, aromatic, and heteroaromatic aldehydes to produce α-alkylideneacetoacetates.
