Participants

Reaction Steps

Sodium ethoxide (11.12 ml, 2 equiv) as a 21% w/v solution in ethanol was added dropwise to a suspension of diethyl ethoxymalonate (3.03 ml, 1 equiv) and 4-chlorobenzamidine hydrochloride (4.23 g, 1 equiv) in ethanol (30 ml), then the mixture was heated to reflux for 4 hours. After cooling, the solvent was removed in vacuo and the residue was triturated with ether. The solid was filtered off, then resuspended in water and acidified to pH 2. The product was filtered off, washed with water and dried; yield 2.94 g. 1H-NMR (d6-DMSO) δ 1.29 (3H, t), 4.26 (2H, q), 7.65 (2H, m), 8.18 (2H, m), 8.65 (1H, s); MS (APCI−) found (M−1) =277/279; C13H11ClN2O3 requires 278/280.
