Procedure

Methyl α-[4-(3-bromomethylphenoxy)-6-methoxy-5-pyrimidinyl]-β-methoxyacrylate (3.2 g, 7.8 mmol), o-hydroxybenzonitril (0.93 g, 7.8 mmol) and potassium carbonate (2.1 g, 15 mmol) are stirred in dimethylformamide (20 ml) for 4 hours at room temperature. Dilution with ether, washing with brine, drying (MgSO4) and chromatography on silicagel (eluent: hexane/ethyl acetate 1:1) gives methyl α-[4-(3-(2-cyanophenoxymethyl)-phenoxy)-6-methoxy-pyrimidin-5-yl]-β-methoxyacrylate as a colorless solid (3.0 g), m.p. 132°-135° C.
