Reaction Steps

A mixture of 2-cyanophenol (13.2 g), potassium carbonate (20.7 g), polyethylene glycol 400 (20.0 g), (E)-methyl 2-[2-(6-chloropyrimidin-4-yloxy)phenyl]-3 -methoxypropenoate (32.8 g) and water (77 g) was heated at 96° C. for 16 hours. The temperature of the solution was then raised to 105° C. and held for a further 12 hours. Any distillates were allowed to come off under atmospheric conditions. (E)-methyl 2-[2-(6-(2-cyanophenoxy)pyrimidin-4-yloxy)phenyl]-3-methoxypropenoate was produced (86.6 area %).
