実験手順
To a stirred solution of o-toluoyl chloride (38.86 g) in dichloromethane (250 ml) at room temperature was added water (20.0 ml) followed immediately by tetrabutylammonium bromide (0.15 g) and sodium cyanide (13.0 g). The reaction mixture was stirred vigorously for 11/2 hours, then filtered. The filtrate was washed with water (2×100 ml) then dried (MgSO4) and evaporated under reduced pressure to give a golden oil. Distillation under vacuum gave 2-methylbenzoyl cyanide, as a colourless oil, bp 47-50°/0.05 mm. To 85% w/w sulphuric acid (140 ml) at room temperature was added sodium bromide (20 g) followed immediately by the dropwise addition of 2-methylbenzoyl cyanide (34.8 g). The reaction mixture was then heated gently until the exothermic reaction started and then maintained at 70° C. for 10 minutes by cooling. Methanol (400 ml) was added and the mixture heated under reflux for 1 hour, cooled and diluted with ice/water (500 ml). Extraction with diethyl ether gave a golden oil which was distilled under vacuum to give methyl oxo(o-tolyl)acetate, as a colourless oil, bp 75-85°/0.4 mm.
