Participants

Reaction Steps

At 100° C., 25 g (292.8 mmol) of cyclopropylacetonitrile (obtainable by the process described in U.S. Pat. No. 3,454,575) and 25.5 g (30.2 ml, 146.4 mmol) of bis(dimethylamino)-tert-butyloxymethane are stirred under a riser pipe for 46 hours. Volatile components are evaporated under reduced pressure and the residue is subsequently distilled at 0.1 Torr and 60-65° C.
