The reaction was then cooled and diluted with water (400 mL). After most of the solid had dissolved, the solution was washed with ethyl ether (2×200 mL) and then acidified with concentrated HCl (approximately 20 mL) to pH of about 5. The copious off-white precipitate was collected by suction filtration and air dried. Crystallization from 95% ethanol (350 mL) provided 21.3 g. of the subtitled compound as white needles, sufficiently pure for further transformation (yield: 45%). 1H NMR (CDCl3, δ) 7.85 (d, 2H, J=8 Hz, o-phenyl), 6.95 (d, 2H, J=8 Hz, m-phenyl), 4.1 (q, 2H, J= 7 Hz, OCH2), 4.0 (s, 2H, CH2CN), 1.45 (t, 3H, CH3).
