2(3H)- and 2(5H)-Furanones. III. An Efficient Synthesis and the Eschenmoser-Mannich Reaction of N-Substituted 4-Amino-2(5H)-furanones

Abstract
A series of N-substituted 4-amino-2(5H)-furanones (II) was derived from .beta.-tetronic acid (I) by direct action of several aliphatic and aromatic amines. The Eschenmoser-Mannich reaction of II readily gave the corresponding Mannich bases (VI) quantitatively.
