Procedure

2-Fluoro-5-formylbenzonitrile (30 g, 201.17 mmol) and 3-aminocrotononitrile (35.01 g, 431.63 mmol) were dissolved in acetic acid and heated to 90° C. After 4 hr, the reaction mixture was cooled to rt, concentrated, neutralized with a saturated solution of sodium bicarbonate, and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic extracts were dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated. The solid were dissolved into ethyl acetate, and hexane was added. The solid precipitated, and was filtered to afford 4-(3-cyano-4-fluorophenyl)-1,4-dihydro-2,6-dimethyl-3,5-pyridinedicarbonitrile (44.9 g, 80.2%) as a pale yellow solid. 1H-NMR (400 MHZ, DMSO-D6): δ=9.61 (br. s, 1H), 7.97 (dd, 1H), 7.48 (dd, 1H), 7.35 (dd, 1H), 4.64 (s, 1H), 2.01 (s, 6H) ppm.
