Reaktionsschritte

A mixture of pyridine-3-carboxaldehyde (2.72 g), propanedioic acid, 1,1-dimethylethyl methyl ester (4.42 g), piperidine (0.173 g) and benzoic acid (0.155 g) in benzene (100 ml) was heated at reflux with removal of water to a Dean-Stark trap for 12 hours. The cooled mixture was washed with bicarbonate solution, concentrated under vacuum and the residue was purified by column chromatography, eluting with ethyl acetate-hexane (3:7) to afford racemic 2-pyridin-3-ylmethylene-malonic acid tert-butyl ester methyl ester as an oil (3.21 g).
