Synthesis of methyl 4-aryl-4-oxo-2-[(4-sulfamoylphenyl)amino]but-2-enoates and their reaction with ninhydrin

Resumo

The reaction of methyl 4-aryl-2,4-dioxobut-2-enoates with 4-aminobenzenesulfonamide in acetic acid–ethanol (1: 1) afforded methyl (2Z)-4-aryl-4-oxo-2-(4-sulfamoylanilino)but-2-enoates which reacted with ninhydrin in glacial acetic acid to give 3-aroyl-4-(4-sulfamoylanilino]-5H-spiro[furan-2,2′-indene]-1′,3′,5-triones.
