Mode opératoire

In a round bottom flask with a teflon stirbar, 25 g (142 mmol) of dimethyl dihydroxyfumarate (prepared according to a procedure described in U.S. Pat. No. 3,334,102), 34.7 g (312.5 mmol) of 4-fluoroaniline, 0.1 mL of concentrated HCl, and 90 ml of methyl alcohol were mixed and heated to reflux for 3 hours. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature and left overnight in a refrigerator. The next morning, the resulting thick paste was filtered on a coarse frit, washed with a 50% (v:v) methanol-water mixture, and dried in a vacuum oven, yielding 32.4 g (63% yield) which, according to NMR analysis, was a mixture of E/Z isomers (E:Z˜1:2).
