Reaction Steps

14.8 g (67 mmols) of ethyl 4-carboxycinnamate, 9.57 g (80 mmols) of thionyl chloride, 100 ml of toluene and 0.18 ml of N,N-dimethylformamide are boiled under reflux for 30 minutes. The reaction mixture is evaporated and the crude product is recrystallised from n-hexane. 12.6 g (79% of theory) of ethyl 4-chloroformylcinnamate are obtained in the form of white crystals; melting point 76.8° C.
