Procedure

To a solution of 6.5 g (0.05 mole) of 3-chloro-6-methylpyridazine and 7.0 g (0.06 mole) of phenylacetonitrile in 50 ml of dry benzene was gradually added 4.0 g of pulverized sodium amide. The mixture was then slowly heated to 80° to 90° C. and maintained at this temperature for one hour. The reaction mixture was thereafter treated in the same manner as in the preparation of 2-phenyl-2-(3-pyridazinyl)-acetonitrile (see Example 1). The resulting product was recrystallized from a mixture of ethanol and isopropyl ether, giving 6.0 g (58% yield) of 2-phenyl-2-(6-methyl-3-pyridazinyl acetonitrile as pale yellow crystals, m.p. 121°-122° C. (decomp.).
