Reaktionsschritte

A solution of 2-(hydroxy(4-phenoxyphenyl)methylene)malononitrile (50 g, 190.8 mmol) in CH(OMe)3 (500 mL) was heated to 75° C. for 16 hr. Then the mixture was concentrated to a residue and washed with MeOH (50 mL) to give 25 g (47.5%) of 2-(methoxy(4-phenoxyphenyl)methylene)malononitrile as a yellow solid. 1H NMR (DMSO-d6) δ 7.70 (d, J=8.4 Hz, 2H), 7.52-7.45 (m, 2H), 7.28 (t, J=7.6 Hz, 1H), 7.22-7.06 (m, 4H), 3.93 (s, 3H). MS (ESI) m/e [M+1]+ 276.9.
