반응 단계

The mixture of 4.7 g of sodium amide and 400 ml of liquid ammonia is cooled to -40° C., then the solution of 24.5 g of 4-diisopropylamino 2-(2-pyridyl) butane nitrile (Example 1a) in 30 ml of anhydrous ether is added, the temperature being maintained between -40° C. and -33° C. The mixture is stirred for 15 mins. at this temperature then the solution of 9 g of 3,3-dimethyl acrylonitrile in 40 ml of ether is added, still at the same temperature. The temperature is allowed to rise slowly up to ambient temperature (duration: about 5 hrs.). 200 ml of ether are added then water is added drop by drop. The ethereal phase is separated and the aqueous phase is re-extracted with ether. The ethereal extracts are collected and dried over sodium sulfate. The solvent is evaporated to dryness and the residue is chromatographed over a column of alumina with the eluting ethyl acetate-pentane (2.5-100) vol/vol mixture.
