After completion of the addition, the reaction was carried out at 600C for 1 hour.
After completion of the reactionj the reaction mixture was allowed to cool and ice water was added and then stirred for 1 hour. The desired compound was extracted with ethyl acetate and the extracted solution was washed with water and dried over magnesium sulfate. 15 Theny the solvent was distilled off under reduced pressurey and the resulting residue was purified by a silica gel column chromatography to obtain 1.2 g of the desired compound as an oil.
Physical properties: oil, yield 72%.

Thent 2.9 9 (28.0 mmoles) of cyanoacetyl chloride was slowly dropped into the resulting mixture. After completion of the droppingy the reaction was carried out at 550C for 3 hours.
After completion of the reaction. the reaction mixture was analyzed by a thin layer chromatography and a gas chromatography (area percentage: 7. 0%). The analysis results obtained were in agreement with those obtained for a standard substance, whereby the production of the desired compound was confirmed.
