A solution of 4-ethylbenzaldehyde (26.0 g, 0.2 mol), malonic acid (41.6 g, 0.4 mol), pyrrolidine (3 ml), and pyridine (80 ml) was heated in an 85° C. oil bath for 16 hr. The reaction mixture was poured over crushed ice (800 ml), and then made acidic with 12N HCl (100 ml). The white precipitate was filtered, suspended in 1N HCl, and filtered again. The white precipitate was washed with water and air dried to give 4-ethyl cinnamic acid (34.0 g, 96.6).
