Reaction Steps
Example 3 is carried out with an equal amount of 3-pentenonitrile in place of 4-pentenonitrile, and with the methanol replaced by 25 parts of cyclohexanol, the mixture is heated to 160° C, and the autoclave is shaken for 4 hours, under a final pressure of 260 bars. 9.9 parts of 5-cyanovaleric acid cyclohexyl ester (47.3% of theory) of boiling point 124.5°-125.5° C/0.5 mm Hg, nD20 = 1.4598, are obtained.
