Participants

Reaction Steps

Phosphorous pentachloride (83.3 g, 400 mmol) is added to a suspension of diethyl (4-cyanophenyl)methylenedicarbamate (intermediate 1, 53.0 g, 182 mmol) in benzene (200 mL) and the mixture is heated at reflux for 2 h. The benzene is evaporated and the mixture is then purified by distillation under reduced pressure. The first fraction (ca. 40° C., ca. 0.01 mbar) is discarded. The second fraction (ca. 110° C., ca. 0.6 mbar) is collected. Yield: 28.4 g; ESI mass spectrum: [M+MeOH—HCl+1-1]+=189; Retention time HPLC: it) 0.65 min (Z003—004).
