Procedure

4-Cyano acetophenone (0.01 mol) in ethanol (100 ml) is added dropwise to a 0° C. mixture of 3-(2-quinolinylmethyloxy)benzaldehyde (0.01 mol) and sodium ethoxide (0.001 mol) in ethanol (200 ml). The reaction mixture is allowed to thaw to ambient temperature and after several hours it is evaporated and partitioned between ethyl acetate and water. The ethyl acetate fraction is dried and evaporated to give 4-(3-(3-(2-quinolinylmethyloxy)phenyl)-1-oxo-2-propen-1-yl)-benzonitrile.
