Abstract
Abstract Described are 2-cyclopentenone esters of the formula: wherein R' is hydrogen, lower alkyl or lower alkenyl, R 2 is lower alkyl, lower alkenyl, lower alkynyl, cycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl or substituted or unsubstituted aryl and R 3 is hydrogen or lower alkyl. They are prepared in high yields by reacting the corresponding racemic or optically active 4-cyclopentenone of the formula: wherein R 1 and R 2 are each as defined above and R is hydrogen or an acyl group with at least one lower aliphatic carboxylic acid and/or its metal- and/or amine salt.
