Participants

Reaction Steps

4 g malonitrile is dissolved in 50 ml dimethylformamide and in several portions 2.4 g sodium hydride 60% dispersion is added to it. To the clear solution 8 g 5-(4-acetylpiperazin-1-yl)isatoic anhydride is added and the mixture is stirred at room temperature for 10 hours. The reaction mixture is diluted with 70 ml water and extracted with 2×30 ml ethyl acetate. The aqueous phase is evaporated to dryness at reduced pressure, the solid residue is dissolved in 20 ml water and the pH is adjusted to 6 with acetic acid. The precipitated material is filtered off and washed with water. After drying 6.5 g of the title compound is obtained (MH+: 312).
