Example-1 Preparation of Ethyl-2-cyano-3-hydroxy-but-2-enoate (III) [77] Potassium carbonate (73.3 g) was added to the well stirred solution of Ethylcy- anoacetate (50 g) in Dimethylformamide (250 ml) and stirred for 15 minute at ambient temperature. Acetic anhydride (90.25 g) was added drop wise to the above well stirred solution during 2 to 3 hours at ambient temperature. Reaction mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 15 to 20 hours. Reaction mixture was diluted with water (500 ml) and extracted with dichloromethane (3 xlOO ml). Combined organic layer was washed with saturated sodium carbonate solution (3x100ml). Aqueous carbonate layer was separated and acidified with 50% HCl solution and extracted with dichloromethane (3x100ml). Combined organic layer was washed with brine solution (100 ml), dried over sodium sulfate and evaporated to yield Ethyl 2-cyano-3-hydroxy-but-2-enoate (58 g).
Yield: 84.6% Example-2 Preparation of Teriflunomide (I) [82] Ethyl 2-cyano-3-hydroxybut-2-enoate (III) (50 g) and 4-(trifluoromethyl) aniline (51.9 g) in xylene (1000 ml) was refluxed for 48 hours. The reaction mixture was allowed to cool at room temperature. Separated solid was filtered and washed with xylene (2×100 ml). Solid was dried under vacuum at 700C to yield (62 g) of Teri- flunomide.
