Procedure
A stirred mixture of 2-methyl-1,4-benzodioxan-2-carboxamide (8.17 g), phosphorus pentoxide (17 g) and anhydrous toluene (175 ml) was heated under reflux for 4 hours. On cooling the supernatant was decanted from the residue, the latter being washed by decantation with more toluene. Filtration and evaporation of the solvent gave a solid residue (5.18 g). Crystallisation from ethanol yielded the cyano compound (4.4 g); m.p. 88°-89°.
