Procedure

To a stirred solution of alpha-bromo-meta-tolunitrile (45.0 g, 0.24 mole), diethyl acetamidomalonate (48.0 g, 0.22 mole) and potassium iodide ((3.0 g, 0.018 mole) in dioxane (500 mL) was added 2.5M sodium ethoxide in ethanol (100 mL) dropwise under an argon atmosphere. After the addition was complete, the solution was refluxed for 6 hours. The reaction mixture was allowed to stand overnight at room temperature, then diluted with brine (250 mL) and water (250 mL), and extracted with ethyl acetate four times (1.0 L total). The combined extracts were washed with water (100 mL), 10% citric acid (100 mL), water (100 mL) and brine (2×50 mL), then dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and filtered; the solvent was removed under vacuum. The crude residue was recrystallized from ethyl acetate and diethyl ether in two crops to yield 43.51 g (60%) of the 3-cyanobenzyl-N-acetylaminomalonic acid diethyl ester as yellow crystals.
