• benzoyloxymethyltriazole 1j furnished the product 3n in excellent (82%) yield, the performance of another alkyltriazole 1k was less impressive giving the corresponding product 3o only in moderate (52%) yield. The reaction of model triazole 1a with 2-methyl-1,3-cyclopentanedione (2c) also led to the product 3p in moderate

Recently, when carrying out the reaction of β-nitrostyrene with 1,3-cyclopentanedione under

• . Results and Discussion In our initial study, equimolar amounts of β-nitrostyrene (1a) and 1,3-cyclopentanedione (2a), as a model reaction (Table 1, entry 1), were mixed and ground in a mortar at room temperature. The mixture became sticky and adhered to the wall of the mortar firmly after a few seconds

• solvents gave much lower yields. In fact, there are few reports on the Michael addition of β-nitrostyrene and 1,3-cyclopentanedione. Hrnčiar and Čulák performed the same reaction in methanol using sodium methylate as a catalyst; however, only 85% of product 3a was obtained, and a longer reaction time was
