Methyl 5-acetyl-2-methoxybenzoate (11.98 g, 48.0 mmol) was added to N,N-dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal (44.6 g, 374.5 mmol) held under a nitrogen atmosphere. The resulting solution was heated at 95° C. for 60 minutes. Methanol (10 ml) was then removed by atmospheric distillation and further N,N-dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal (8.90 g, 74.9 mmol) added. The resulting solution was heated at 95° C. for a further 270 minutes. The reaction was then cooled to 50° C. and ethyl acetate (35 mL) added. Solvent (35 mL) is removed from the reaction by atmospheric distillation and fresh ethyl acetate (35 mL) added. Further solvent (35 mL) is removed from the reaction by atmospheric distillation and fresh ethyl acetate (50 mL) added. The reaction mixture is cooled to RT whereby the desired product crystallises out as a granular, free flowing solid. The solid was isolated by filtration, washed twice with fresh ethyl acetate (2×30 mL) and dried to constant weight to afford 11.39 g of the desired methyl 5-[(2E)-3-(dimethylamino)prop-2-enoyl]-2-methoxybenzoate (8).
