Procedure

5.3 ml of 1.2M aqueous sodium hypochloride solution were added dropwise to a suspension of 1.04 g (4 mmol) of 2-(4-benzyloxybenzylidene)-malononitrile in 12 ml of dioxan while stirring at pH 9-10, the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour and 2N sulphuric acid was added until a pH of 4.8 was reached. Extraction with ethyl acetate, drying with sodium sulphate and distillation of the solvent gave 1.22 g of 3-(4-benzyloxy-phenyl)-oxirane-2,2-dicarbonitrile as a yellow-brown oil, which was used without further purification for the next step.
