Abstract

Knoevenagel condensation of various aromatic and heteroaromatic aldehydes with active methylene compounds such as methyl and ethyl cyanoacetate, malononitrile, and cyanoacetamide proceeds smoothly with stirring in water in the presence of 4 mol% of diammonium hydrogen phosphate. The reactions were carried out at room temperature in short periods with a very simple workup procedure and good to high yields.
