Procedure

0.67 ml of the stock solution from Example 52, 3.05 g (16.8 mmols) of 2-bromobenzonitrile, 1.99 ml (18.4 mmols) of ethyl acrylate and 1.50 g (18.4 mmols) of anhydrous sodium acetate are added, under argon, to 16.3 ml of DMF, and the reaction mixture is stirred at 130° C. for 3 hours. After working up as described in Example 1, the crude product is recrystallised from a mixture of pentane and carbon tetrachloride. 1.5 g (7.5 mmols) of ethyl o-cyanocinnamate are obtained in the form of white crystals of melting point 56° C., corresponding to a yield of 44% of theory (conversion figure 4400; Pd content 0.01 mol %). Analysis for C12H11NO2 (molecular weight 201.23): calculated C 71.63; H 5.51; N 6.96; O 15.90, found C 71.17; H 5.64; N 6.88; O 16.56.
