Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 4-chloro-3-fluorobenzaldehyde (50.0 g) and methyl acrylate (42.6 mL) in acetonitrile (158 mL) was added 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (10.6 g), and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 3 days. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure, and the residue was purified by silica gel chromatography (hexane/ethyl acetate) to give the title compound (69.1 g).
