Reaktionsschritte

1-Ethylpyrrole-2-carbaldehyde (cf. J. Chem. Soc. (C), 2563, 1970) (7.4 g, 60 mmole), hydroxylamine hydrochloride (4.8 g, 69 mmole) sodium acetate trihydrate (9.4 g, 69 mmole) and water (30 ml) are mixed, and the mixture is stirred at room temperature for 20 minutes and then allowed to stand in a cooled place overnight. The precipitated oxime compound is taken by filtration and dried. The oxime compound is refluxed in acetic anhydride (25 ml) for 20 minutes and then allowed to cool until room temperature. The reaction mixture is added to ice water, and the mixture is stirred for 2 hours and neutralized with sodium carbonate and extracted with ether twice. The ether layer is dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and the solvent is distilled off under reduced pressure. The resulting residue is distilled under reduced pressure to give 1-ethylpyrrole-2-carbonitrile (5.25 g, yield: 73%).
