Synthesis and reactivity
The first preparation of a münchnone derivative was reported in 1959 by Lawson & Miles by cyclodehydration of 2-pyridone-''N''-acetic acid with acetic anhydride. Theazomethine ylide
Azomethine ylides are nitrogen-based 1,3-dipoles, consisting of an iminium ion next to a carbanion. They are used in 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions to form five-membered heterocycles, including pyrrolidines and pyrrolines. These reactions ...

s, was first published by Huisgen et al. The Huisgen group followed up with a thorough investigation of the chemical properties, reactivity, and utility of münchnones towards the synthesis of many other products.Gribble, G. W. In ''Oxazoles: Synthesis, Reactions, and Spectroscopy'',
A; Palmer, D. C., Ed.; Wiley: New York, 2003; Vol. 60. () As such, they are typically credited for the discovery of the münchnone class of molecules. While certain substituted münchnones are stable and easily isolated under ambient conditions, the majority are unstable, including the parent münchnone itself. Münchnones are typically used as 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition substrates in the synthesis of pyrrole
