Reaction Conditions

Temperature95 °C

Reaction Steps

A mixture of α-Carbethoxy-β-[3,4-dimethoxyphenyl]propionitrile (10 g) and diethoxymethyl acetate (30 g) was heated at 95° C. for 20 hours. The volatiles were removed under vacuum pump pressure leaving 13.4 g (94%) of a nearly colorless oil which solidified on standing at -5° C. to a white solid, m.p. 62°-65° C.
