    Reactions to synthesize cyanoacetic acid esters from the corresponding monochloroacetates and various metal cyanides have been studied. The maximum yield of the desired cyanoacetate was 60% and in all cases, cyanosuccinate and cyanotri-carballylate were formed as by-products. The activation energy values for the reaction between potassium cyanide and each one of methyl monochloracetate, ethyl monochlor-acetate, methyl cyanoacetate, and ethyl cyanoacetate were found to be 14.2, 15.5, 17.1, and 18.7 Kcal/mol.The small differences among those values suggest that the byproduct formation is difficult to avoid. In the reaction, the solubility of metal cyanide into the reaction mixture proved to be the rate determining factor. When higher reaction temperature is applied for the reaction between higher alkyl esters of chloracetic acid and potassium cyanide in order to accelerate the reaction, the by-product formation is also accelerated. Thus, for the preparation of higher alkyl esters, ester-interchange reaction is recommended. In this case, approximately 95% yield is attained. The activation energy value for the reaction between ethyl cyanoacetate and 2-ethylhexanol in the presence of sulfuric acid was calculated to be 13.2 Kcal/mol.

    In the synthesis of alkyl cyanoacetate and potassium cyanide, as reported in the preceding paper, the formation of the by-products, cyanosuccinate and cyanotri-carballylate, was difficult to avoid due to the presence of active methylene group in the cyanoacetate. In the present study, however, it has been demonstrated that cyanoacetic acid esters can readily be prepared in good yield through the reaction between sodium monochloroacetate and potassium cyanide with subsequent esterification. The activation evergy value for the cyanation was calculated to be 16.2 Kcal/mol, and essentially no reaction occured between sodium cyanoacetate and potassium cyanide.

  • Reaction with Benzene and Toluene

    Reactions between toluene and each one of cyanuric chloride, 2, 4-dichloro-6-methoxy-s-triazine (DCMT) and 2-chloro-4, 6-dimethoxy-s-triazine (CDMT), and that between benzene and DCMT in the presence of aluminium chloride were stu-died. Cyanuric chloride and DCMT underwent dehydrochlorination reaction with toluene and benzene to form condensed products. No dehydrochlorination reaction, however, occured between CDMT and toluene. In this case, mono-methyl isocya-nuric acid and dimethyl isocyanuric acid were formed through demethylation and isomerization. From the toluene condensates, p-tolyl-s-triazine was identified. The reaction conditions to hydrorize the cyanuric chloride-toluene condensates with sulfuric acid into p-methylbenzoic acid were established.
