Summary.
The reaction of 2-amino-4,5-dihydro-3-furancarboxamides with morpholine in the presence of acetic acid in pyridine or under the influence of ammonium acetate gave the corresponding 3-diaminomethylene-4,5-dihydro-2(3H )-furanones; 4,5-dihydro-2-morpholino-3-furancarboxamides were not isolated. One of the former reacted with benzylamine to give (E )- and (Z )-3-(amino-(benzylamino)-methylene)-4,5-dihydro-4-phenyl-2(3H )-furanones and 2-benzylamino-4,5-dihydro-4-phenyl-3-furancarboxamide.
