Reaction Steps

The compound was prepared as described in Example 3 by adding 4-nitrocinnamaldehyde (0.051 g, 0.29 mmol) to 2-amino-1-propene-1,1,3-tricarbonitrile (0.038 g, 0.29 mmol). After refluxing for 4 h and recrystallization from ethanol a yellow solid was obtained (0.08 g, 51%). The product gave the following analytical data:
