✦ Synopsis
Dialkylcyanocuprates, prepared from copper(l) cyanide and the corresponding alkyllithium or Gringard reagents, readily react with carbon monoxide in the presence of tri-n-butylphosphine at -78 "C in THF to give a-hydroxyketones in high yields (6585%). Q 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.

## Abstract 4,6‐Diaminoresorcinol, which is a raw material of ZYLON (PBO fiber), has an instability in air atmosphere. Therefore, very stable benzo[1,2‐d:5,4‐d']bis‐2(3H)‐oxazolone recognized a useful equivalent of 4,6‐diaminoresorcinol during the stages of production, storage, and transportation.
