Over a 30 min period, methyl iodide (17.7 g, 125 mmol) was added dropwise to a solution of sodium 2-(mercapto-phenylamino-methylene)-malonic acid diethyl ester (33 g, 104 mmol) in DMF (100 mL) cooled in an ice bath. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 h, and then poured into ice water (300 mL). The resulting solid was collected via filtration, washed with water and dried to give 2-(methylsulfanyl-phenylamino-methylene)-malonic acid diethyl ester as a pale yellow solid (27 g, 84%).
