Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2-cyanoacetamide (14.0 g, 166 mmol) and trifluoroacetylacetone (20.0 ml, 166 mmol) in H2O (332 ml) was added K2CO3 (6.60 g, 47.9 mmol). The mixture was stirred at 23° C. for 15 h. The precipitated solid was filtered with Buchner funnel, washed with ice cold H2O, and dried with hot air (60° C., 16 h) to give the titled compound (17.6 g, 52%). 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6): δ ppm 2.38 (s, 3H), 6.66 (s, 1H).
