Reaktionsschritte

Twenty-five percent sodium methoxide in methanol (24.3 g, 11 mol) was added dropwise to a stirred mixture of 19 g (0.091 mol) 2-nitro-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzonitrile and 100 mL of methanol at 20°-30° C. After 1 hour at 25° C., 100 mL of water was added. The solids were collected on a filter and washed with water. The solids were dried to yield 12.5 g of product melting at 59°-61° C. 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ4.00 (s, 3H), 7.2-7.7 (3H).
