Action of Phosphorus Pentachlorid on Diethyhacetoacetic Ester. 



By this action diethyl-monochlor-acetoacetic ester, CH2 CI — COC 

 (C2 1^5)2 CO2 C2 H5 , and the corresponding dichlor derivative were 

 formed. Diethyl-monochlor-acetoacetic ester treated with sodium 

 methoxid gave methoxy-diethyl-acetoacetic ester, CH2 (CH3 O) COC 

 (C2 1^5)2 CO2 C2 H5 , and methoxy-methyl-ethyl acetone, CH2 (CH3 O) 

 COCH (CH3) (C2H5). Di-methoxy-diethyl-acetoacetic ester, CH 

 (CH3 0)2 COC (C2 115)2 CO2C2H5, and di-methoxy-diethyl acetone, 

 CH (CH3 0)2 COCH (C2 H5)2 , were also prepared.

Synthesis of Acetoacetic Ester from Cyanacetone. 



The author has repeated the experiment of Matthew * and Hodgkin- 

 son's and failed to produce any trace of acetoacetic ester from 

 cyanacetone with hy4rochloric acid or an alkali.

Production of Quinizins by the Action of Hydrazobenzenes on 



Acetoacetic Esters. 



Acetoacetic ester treated with hydrazobenzene gives phenyl-methyl- 

 oxyquinizin which melts at 122.°
