Room temperature acylketene formation? 1,3-Dioxin-4-ones via silver(I) activation of phenylthioacetoacetate in the presence of ketones.

ABSTRACT: Silver(I) activation of thioacetoacetates in the presence of ketones produces 1,3-dioxin-4-ones. Mechanistic studies addressing the intermediacy of an acylketene intermediate are described.
