Benzylmalonyl Chloride reacts in the presence of sodium acetate in boiling benzene to give tribenzyl-phloroglucinol-triacetate, however with sodium chloroacetate to 3,5-dibenzyl-6-phenethylpyran-2,4-dion. In both cases trimerisation of benzylketene or benzylketene carboxylic acid chloride occurs. On the other hand, benzylmalonylchloride reacts with sodium benzoate and sodium phenylacetate via a dimeric benzylketene carboxylic acid chloride under the loss of phosgene to yield cyclopentadienyl derivatives.
