Reaktionsschritte

5.0 g (22.5 mmol) 1-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)butane-1,3-dione, 2.9 g (29.2 mmol) cyanthioacetamide and 4.0 g (29.2 mmol) potassium carbonate are added by stirring to 170 ml acetone at room temperature for 21 h. Then, the solvent is removed and the residue is just dissolved in ethanol/water (1:1). Following acidification with glacial acetic acid, the resulting precipitate is sucked off, washed with some water, suck dried and dried in vacuo at 50° C. 6.34 g (98%) 2-mercapto-6-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-4-methyl-pyridine-3-carbonitrile is obtained.
