A new synthetic route of Ethyl 2,3-dicyanopropanoate

According to the analysis of related databases, 40497-11-8, the application of this compound in the production field has become more and more popular.

In the chemical reaction process, reaction time, type of solvent, can easily affect the result of the reaction, thereby determining the yield and properties of the reaction product. An updated downstream synthesis route of 40497-11-8 as follows. 40497-11-8

In a 250 mL round-bottomed three-necked flask, 0.01 mol of 3-methylaniline and a small amount of ethanol were added,3.0 mL (0.035 mol) of concentrated hydrochloric acid was added dropwise under ice-cooling with stirring.0.018 mol of sodium nitrite was dissolved in 10 mL of water,Slowly dropping into the flask,After the reaction was completed 0.5h yellow diazonium salt solution.0.01 mol of ethyl 2,3-dicyanopropionate was added to a three-necked flask,The prepared diazonium salt solution was dropped into the flask,After dropping the reaction 2 h.Adding ammonia,Adjust the pH to 9-10,Reaction at room temperature for 2h.After completion of the reaction, the reaction mixture was extracted with 40 mL of dichloromethane,The organic layer was washed with water (2 x 30 mL)Washed with saturated sodium chloride solution (1 x 40 mL)Dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate,Partial distillation of the solvent under reduced pressure gave 1.50 g of product,Yield 76.2%

According to the analysis of related databases, 40497-11-8, the application of this compound in the production field has become more and more popular.
