3-[3-(Dimethylamino)prop-2-enoyl]benzonitrile → 3-(2-Phenylamino-pyrimidin-4-yl)benzonitrile

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 3-(3-dimethylamino-acryloyl)-benzonitrile (30.4 g, 152 mmol) in acetonitrile (250 mL) was added a solution of phenylguanidine (21.0 g, 155 mmol) in acetonitrile (250 mL) and the mixture was heated at reflux for two hours. The solution was cooled and the resulting solid was filtered and washed with acetonitrile to afford the title compound.
