Procedure

A mixture of 4-methoxy-3-nitrobenzaldehyde (1.5 g, 8.2 mmol) and methyl (triphenylphosphoranylidene)acetate (4.4 g, 13 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (30 mL) was heated at reflux overnight. The reaction mixture was cooled and evaporated under reduced pressure; the crude residue was purified by flash chromatography (acetone/hexane, 20/80) to afford 0.5 g of (E)-3-(4-methoxy-3-nitro-phenyl)-acrylic acid methyl ester.
