Diethyl Ether → HCID 178500766, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

In 5 ml of benzene was dissolved 0.7 g of methyl 5-(cyclopenten-1-yl)-3-oxo-4-pentenoate, and 0.6 g of N,N-dimethylformamidodimethylacetal was added thereto. They were reacted at 70° C. for 1.5 hours. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature, and 0.44 g of 4-hydroxy-2-methylaniline was added thereto. The resulting mixture was subjected to reaction for addtional 1.5 hours. After completion of the reaction, 5 ml of diethyl ether was added, and the precipitated crystals were collected by filtration, and washed with 5 ml of diethyl ether to obtain 0.7 g of methyl 5-(cyclopenten-1-yl)-2-(4-hydroxy-2-methylphenylaminomethylene)-3-oxo-4-pentenoate having a melting point of 148°-151° C.
