Reaction Steps

In a mixed solvent of ethanol (15 ml) and THF (5 ml) were dissolved 5-(2-{4-[(2-hydroxyethyl) methylamino]-2-methoxyphenyl}vinyl)thiophene-2-carbaldehyde (0.5 g, 1.58 mmol) and 2-(3-cyano-4-methyl-5-phenyl-5-trifluoromethyl-5H-furan-2-ylidene)malononitrile (0.50 g, 1.58 mmol). The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 18 hours and further at 50° C. for 3 hours. The mixture was cooled and the solid was collected. The solid was washed with cold ethanol (40 ml) 3 times to give a reddish brown crystal (yield: 0.91 g (93.8%)).
