Reaction Steps

Amino-3-[2-(4-cyanophenyl)ethoxy]-5-methylbenzene (0.252 g; 1.00 mmol; from Example 17(iii) above), ethyl acrylate (130 μL; 1.2 mmol) and acetic acid (9 μL; 0.15 mmol) were refluxed together for 8 hours. After evaporation in vacuo, the resultant black oil was purified by flash chromatography (SiO2; EtOAc:heptane (3:7)) to give 0.102 g (29%) of the sub-title compound.
