Procedure
Water was added to 2-methyl-3-oxobutanal sodium salt (1-013-01) (34.73 g), and to the reaction mixture was added 2-cyanoacetamide (23.91 g) and 1.76 mol/L piperidinium acetate (119.4 mL), and the reaction mixture was stirred under reflux in an oil bath at 127° C. After 21 h, to the reaction mixture was added gradually dropwise acetic acid (42.7 mL) at 65° C. as internal temperature for 15 min. After the stirring was continued until internal temperature became to 24° C., the resulting crystal was filtered, and washed with water to give 3-cyano-5,6-dimethyl-2-pyridone (1-013-02) (27.76 g, 65.9%, m.p. 258-263° C.).
