Reaktionsschritte

A mixture of 2,4-dibenzyloxybenzaldehyde (1 g), methyl cyanoacetate (0.27 mL), piperidine (0.1 mL) and ethanol (30 mL) is stirred at ambient temperature for 20 minutes and the solvent is removed under reduced pressure. The residue is recrystallized from ethanol to give methyl (E)-3-(2,4-dibenzyloxyphenyl)-2-cyanoacrylate as a yellow solid (400 mg).
