Itaconic anhydride isomerizes to citraconic anhydride in the presence of MTS. In the presence of Lewis acid catalysts (Yb(OTf)3/CH2Cl2), MTS adds to itaconic anhydride at room temperature in a 1,4-fashion. 1,2-Addition is the preferred pathway with both 2,3-dimethyl maleic anhydride and citraconic anhydride.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">16</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">0.937</style></custom4></record></records></xml>
