Procedure
Sodium pellets were slowly added to methanol solution to form NaOMe in situ, then methyl thioglycolate was added over a period of 20 minutes to the methanol solution. A solution of 3-Chloro-3-(3-chloro-phenyl)-acrylonitrile in methanol was added slowly and was brought to reflux for 1 hour. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature and methanol was concentrated to 100 mL and 200 mL of water was added, stirred for 30 min and the yellow precipitate was collected and washed with water several times to yield a yellow crystalline compound, mp 92-95° C. 1H NMR (DMSO-d6) δ1.60 (s, 6H), 7.30 (d, 1H, J=8.41 Hz), 7.41 (d, 1H, J=8.41 Hz), 10.47 (s, 1H); MS (+APCI) m/z 213(M+H); Anal. Calc. For C9H9ClN2O2: C, 50.84; H, 4.27; N, 13.17. Found: C, 50.99; H, 4.28; N, 12.98.
