Participants

Reaction Steps

24.0 g (0.1 mol) of 1-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-phenylbuten-3-one, 23 g (0.2 mol) of methyl 3-amino-crotonate and 6 ml (0.1 mol) of glacial acetic acid are heated under reflux overnight in 150 m of ethanol, heated under reflux for 18 h after addition of 11.5 g (0.1 mol) of methyl 3-aminocrotonate and 3 ml of glacial acetic acid and heated under reflux for 18 h once more after repeated addition of 11.5 g (0.1 mol) of methyl 3-aminocrotonate and 3 ml of glacial acetic acid. The solvent is removed in vacuo, 80 ml of methanol are added to the residue, undissolved material is filtered off with suction, the methanolic solution is concentrated in vacuo and excess aminocrotonate is distilled off from the residue at 73° C.-90° C./18 mbar and subsequently at 60° C.-70° C. 0.2 mbar. 37.5 g of crude product are obtained as a brittle fused mass.
