Abstract

A process for the preparation of N-cyanoethanimidic acid esters by reacting orthoacetic acid esters with cyanamide. The reaction is carried out in alcoholic solution in the presence of an acid catalyst. N-cyanoethanimidic acid esters can be prepared in this manner in a high yield and high state of purity, with a low technical outlay and in an environmentally safe manner, free of dangerous by-products.
