How can this reagent be synthesied??? I thought it like Malonic Acid synthesis and starting by beta- Mono-Chloro-Propionic-Acid ===NaCN===> beta Cyano-Propionic-Acid ===H2SO4===> Succinic Acid
But since this synthesis is VERY DANGEROUS (since HCN might evolve) I search for another way!!!
Any help would be appreciated...
