Reaktionsschritte

To a suspension of 21.83 g (145 mmol) of benzylurea and 25 ml (145 mmol) of diethyl methylmalonate in 74 ml of methanol, 35.4 ml (145 mmol) of a 4.1M sodium methylate solution was added at room temperature, followed by refluxing for 16 hours. After the reaction mixture was cooled, the solvent was distilled off. After the residue was dissolved in water and insoluble substances were filtered out, the filtrate was adjusted to pH 3-4 by adding concentrated hydrochloric acid. The resulting precipitate was collected by filtration, washed with water and n-hexane-diethyl ether and dried to yield 30.11 g (84.8%, white crystal) of the desired product.
