Procedure
2-Mercaptobenzothiazole (25.0 g; 0.15 moles) was mixed with t-butanol (125 ml) and benzyltrimethylammonium hydroxide (40% in methanol; 3 ml). Acrylonitrile (15.9 g; 0.30 moles) was added dropwise and the mixture stirred at room temperature for 7 days. The product was removed by filtration and recrystallized from benzene.
