Reaction Steps

A cinnamic acid is first prepared by reacting a benzaldehyde with malonic acid in pyridine and piperidine. The cinnamic acid is then reacted with thionyl chloride to produce a cinnamoyl chloride derivative. The HE-CelCN is finally synthesized by reacting HE-cellulose with the cinnamoyl chloride derivative in an inert solvent (such as chloroform, nitrobenzene, chlorobenzene, or the like). The reaction mixture is diluted with methanol, filtered, dried in a vacuum, and milled by a vibrating mill, whereupon the CelCN is obtained.
