Malonic Acid → 2-Chloro-4-(2-tetrahydropyranyloxy)cinnamic acid

Participants

Reaction Steps

Using 4.8 g of 2-chloro-4-(2-tetrahydropyranyloxy)benzaldehyde derived from 2-chloro-4-hydroxybenzaldehyde by the introduction of tetrahydropyranyl group thereinto, 4.2 g of malonic acid, 80 ml of pyridine, and 0.5 ml of piperidine, a reaction similar to that performed in Example 99 was carried out. As a result, 3.1 g of 2-chloro-4-(2-tetrahydropyranyloxy)cinnamic acid was obtained as crystal, which had the following physiochemical properties:
