Reaction Steps

Diethyl 2[2-propoxy-2-(6-mesitylpyridin-2-yl)-ethylidene]-malonate (0.189 g, 0.43 mmol) was dissolved in 4 mL of Dowtherm A (phenyl ether: biphenyl 2:1 ratio). The solution was placed in a pre-heated oil bath set at 220° C. The reaction stirred at this temperature for 15 minutes. The solution was cooled and flash chromatographed (20-50% ethyl acetate/hexanes) to give 0.012 g (7% yield) of the title compound.
