A non-enolizable example of these compounds is required for the "crossed" version of a reaction that normally yields their "beta-keto" derivatives.
The homologation of these compounds uses dibromomethane as an alternative to the more dangerous diazomethane. A chemical shift between 3.7 and 4.1 ppm is usually observed in the proton NMR spectra for these compounds. Acetic acid can be synthesized through thermal decomposition of the "malonic" compound of this type. A non-enolizable example of these compounds is required for the "crossed" version of a reaction that normally yields their "beta-keto" derivatives. These products of the Claisen condensation can be synthesized by refluxing a carboxylic acid and alcohol in the presence of an acid catalyst in a reaction named for Fischer. For 10 points, name these compounds known for smelling nice.
