Procedure
To a nitrogen flushed magnetically stirred 3 L single neck round bottom flask fitted with a nitrogen inlet was charged 285 g (1.9 mol) of piperonal, 200 g (2.0 mol) of trimethylsilylcyanide, 0.2 g of potassium cyanide, 0.2 g of 18-crown-6 and 500 mL of methylene chloride. The mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 75 min, during which time the reaction exothermed to 35° C. A second charge of 5 g of piperonal was added and the reaction stirred an additional 75 min. The reaction mixture was diluted with ether and 250 mL of saturated sodium bicarbonate solution was added. The mixture was stirred for 20 min before partitioning. The organic layer was washed with another 250 mL portion of saturated sodium bicarbonate, twice with brine (300 mL), dried with sodium surfate, filtered and concentrated, leaving 489.6 g (481.4 g theoretical yield) of the title compound as a pale yellow oil. This was used as is without purification in the next step.
