Procedure
To sodium methoxide (1.90 g., 0.03 mole) in methanol (50 ml.) is added 4,5-methylenedioxy-2-aminobenzaldehyde (5.0 g., 0.03 mole) and 2-cyanoacetamide (2.50 g., 0.03 mole). The mixture is heated to reflux for fifteen minutes and then cooled in an ice bath. The bright yellow solid is filtered off and recrystallized from acetic acid to give 6.18 g. (89.3%) of the desired product. M.P. 308° C. (dec.). (m/e = 231)
