Procedure

To a mixture of ethyl 4-pyridylacetate (46.7 g, 0.28 mol), 3,3-bis(methylthio)-2-cyanoacrylonitrile (47.6 g, 0.28 mol) and p-dioxane (300 ml) cooled in an ice bath was added 60% NaH (11.2 g, 0.28 mol) over 30 minutes. The mixture was slowly warmed to room temperature over 2 hours and was stirred at ambient temperature for 4 hours. The mixture was poured into ice-water, acidified with acetic acid and the resulting precipitate was collected by filtration and washed with water. The product was recrystallized from cyclohexane and dried at 70°-75° C. in high vacuum to afford 40.3 g (50%) of ethyl 2-(2,2-dicyano-1-methylthioethenyl)-4-pyridylacetate as orange crystals, m.p. 148°-152° C.
