Microwave irradiation was used to the Knoevenagel-Doebner synthesis of cinamic acid from benzaldehyde and malonic acid using pyridine as a solvent and aniline as a catalyst. The influence of the mol ratio of benzaldehyde and malonic acid, the microwave power, the time of the reaction and the dosage of the catalyst on the yield of cinamic acid was investigated.The optimum reaction condition was determined through orthogonal design as follows: the mol ratio of benzaldehyde and malonic acid was 1.20, the dosage of aniline was 0.26mL, the microwave power was 464W and the time of the reaction was 19min when 2.510g of malonic acid was used.Under the optimum reaction condition the yield of cinamic acid was almost quantitative and the refined yield reached 67.17%. In summary, the microwave technique promotes the synthesis of the cinamic acid with high yield and convenient operation and has extensive utilization.
