Versuchsvorschrift

A mixture of 95 g of benzaldehyde, 114.3 g of 7A, 1 g of piperidine and 200 ml of acetic acid was heated on a steam bath for 1 hour. The acetic acid and unreacted benzaldehyde were distilled off, to 100° C./0.2 Torr. The residue was extracted with hot hexane; no residue was left. The solution was chilled, and the solid that formed was recrystallized from methanol to give the 1-methylethyl ester of 2-cyano-3-phenyl-2-propenoic acid (7B), mp: 72°-73° C.
