The present invention provides an improved process for the preparation of 3-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-cyanopropanoic acid (compound (A)) and further its transformation to Baclofen (I). The process comprises reaction of compound (II) with Glyoxylic acid to obtain 3-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-cyanoacrylic acid (III); followed by the ‘in-situ’ reduction of (III) in the presence of a reducing agent to provide the compound (A).
Alternatively, the compound (A) is obtained by the process comprising reacting 2-(4-chlorophenyl)acetonitrile (II) with haloacetic acid (IV) in the presence of a base.
The compound 3-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-cyanopropanoic acid (A) undergoes hydrogenation in the presence of a metal catalyst and ammonia solution to provide Baclofen (I).

develop a novelsyntheticapproach through C–C bond formation and a cost-effective route to baclofen. The synthesis involved a two-step approach through C–C bond formation using the extensively and commercially available starting material 4-chlorobenzyl cyanide with chloroacetic acid as a reagent in an aprotic solvent, followed by reduction of the nitrile functional group. The synthetic route to baclofen
