反応手順

According to the method described in J.Heterocyclic Chem., 24, 351 (1987), a mixture of 2-ethyl-3-oxobutanal, sodium salt (37.5 g, 0.275 mmol), cyanoacetamide (25.2 g, 0.30 mol), aqueous piperidinium acetate (22 mL) [prepared from glacial acetic acid (4.2 mL), water (10 mL) and piperidine (7.2 mL)] in water (775 ml) was refluxed for four hours. Glacial acetic acid (30 ml) was added cautiously (much foaming) as the product precipitated. Upon cooling to room temperature, the product was collected by filtration, washed with cold water and air dried to yield 22.3 g (50%), m.p. 237°-240° C.
