Procedure
4.96 g of 4-cyanobenzoyl chloride and 2.67 g of β-alanine were stirred at room temperature for 4 hours in 450 ml of sodium bicarbonate solution (2%) and the mixture was acidified using concentrated sulphuric acid (pH 6). The solution was evaporated and extracted using ethyl acetate. Drying and evaporation of the organic phase gave a residue which, with diisopropyl ether, yielded 4.69 g of N-(p-cyanobenzoyl)-β-alanine, m.p. 155°-157° C.
