반응 단계

To the chalcone, 187, (17.95 g, 54.7) mmol) in 2-ethoxyethanol (150 mL) at 55° C. was added acetic acid (4 mL) followed by slow addition of potassium cyanide (5.3 g, 81 mmol) in water. The solution was stirred at 105° C. for 0.25 hour. The solution was cooled and treated with water (25 mL). The mixture was filtered to collect the solid. The solid was washed repeatedly with 70% ethanol (50 mL), air dried, and then dried in vacuo to give the nitrile 12.7 g (68%) as a yellow solid. The nitrile was identified by 1H NMR, IR, MS, and microanalysis.
