25. (a) The reaction of dimethyl methylmalonate with alkynes gave only a trace amount of the adducts even after a prolonged reaction time, although the reaction of methyl malononitrile gave the desired allylation product in high yields.5a
26. 1H NMR spectra, the methyne proton of methyl malononitrile appears at δ 3.77. On the other hand, the methyne proton of dimethyl methylmalonate and 1a (vide infra) appears at δ 3.44 and 2.30, respectively. This indicates that the methyne proton of methyl malononitrile is more acidic than dimethyl methylmalonate and 1a.
27. We ran the reaction at higher concentration because we observed that at lower concentrations the reaction became slower.
