Abstract

Poly(4-vinylpyridine-co-ethylvinylbenzene) 25 % cross-linked (with divinylbenzene) has been found to be an effective heterogeneous catalyst for the synthesis of benzoyl fumarate from aldehyde and dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate. Various aromatic aldehydes undergo this reaction with good yield in presence of 15 wt% of the catalyst. The catalyst was recovered and reused six times without appreciable alteration in activity.
