Abstract
5-Alkoxy-1-aralkyl-3-aryl-4-methyl-2,5-dihydro-2-pyrrolones and the corresponding alkylthio derivatives were synthesized for the first time through the intermediate formation of unsymmetrical maleimides. The possibility of wide variation of the substituents at positions 1, 3, and 5 of the 2-pyrrolones was demonstrated.
