Summary
| Description |
English: The reaction used by Andrew N. Meldrum in 1908 to obtain the chemical 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane-4,6-dione, today called "Meldrum's acid". It is a condensation reaction between acetone C 3H 6O (left) with malonic acid C 3H 4O 4 (center) in acetic anhydride and sulfuric acid, to yield Meldrum's acid C 6H 8O 4 (right) and one molecule of water H 2O (not shown). |
