Reaction Steps

According to the previously described general procedure (GP1), Knoevenagel condensation (75° C.; 3 h) between 3,4,5-trifluorobenzaldehyde (7.000 g; 43.724 mmol) and malonic acid (8.644 g; 83.076 mmol) gave the product 3-(3,4,5-trifluoro-phenyl)-acrylic acid as a yellow solid (8.600 g; 97%). LC-MS: tR=0.91 min.; [M+H]+: no ionisation.
