Abstract
Abstract Ethyl ( Z )-3-fluoropropenoate ( Z-5 ) has been prepared in a pure state in 68% yield by a Wittig procedure developed by Burton. Ethyl ( E )-3-fluoropropenoate ( E-6 ) was prepared in 38% yield following the synthetic method of Purrington. The Z isomer gives cycloaddition with 1,3-diphenylisobenzofuran and cyclopentadiene to give a product with completely endo configurations. The E isomer also gives cycloadducts with same dienes to give mixtures of endo and exo products.
