Procedure: In a 100 ml flange flask fitted with a distillation bridge and anchor stirrer, 14.5 g (0.25 mol) of potassium fluoride, 4.8 g (0.007 mol) of trimethyl(ethoxypolyoxypropyl)ammonium chloride, 6.2 g (0.012 mol) of polyethylene glycol dimethyl ether 500 and 2.4 g (0.007 mol) of tetrabutylphosphonium bromide were introduced at 100° C. into the melt of 47.5 g (0.25 mol) of 2,4-dichloro-5-fluorobenzonitrile. Subsequently, 10 g (0.09 mol) of xylene were added and the reaction suspension was azeotropically dried by application of a vacuum of 20 mbar and heating to 130° C. After the xylene had been distilled off, the reaction suspension was heated to 140° C. and stirred for 8 hours at this temperature. Amount of 2-chloro-4,5-difluorobenzonitrile formed: the reaction suspension was azeotropically dried by application of a vacuum of 20 mbar After the xylene had been distilled off the reaction suspension was heated to 140° C.

Procedure: 97.6 g (0.4 mol) of 5-bromo-2,4-dichlorofluorobenzene, 35.8 g (0.4 mol) of copper(I)cyanide, 10.0 g (0.014 mol) of trimethyl(ethoxypolyoxypropyl)ammonium chloride, 5.0 g (0.015 mol) of tetrabutylphosphonium bromide and 5.0 g (0.01 mol) of polyethylene glycol dimethyl ether 500 were introduced together with 20.0 g (0.19 mol) of xylene into a 250 ml 3-neck flask fitted with a reflux condenser and blade stirrer and azeotropically dried at up to 150° C. under reduced pressure. Amount of 2,4-dichloro-5-fluorobenzonitrile formed: after 5 hours: 19 GC area-%. after 26 hours: 75 GC area-%. fitted with a reflux condenser and blade stirrer azeotropically dried at up to 150° C. under reduced pressure

Procedure: A mixture comprising 5.70 g (0.03 ) of 2,4-dichloro-5-fluorobenzonitrile, 3.48 g (0.06 mol) of spray dried KF and 30 ml of dimethylsulfoxide, was reacted at a temperature of from 140° to 150° C. for 3.5 hours in a glass reactor. After completion of the reaction, the mixture was poured into ice water (50 ml) and extracted with chloroform. The chloroform extract was washed five times with water and then dried. Then chloroform was distilled off. The residue was distilled under reduced pressure to obtain 3.57 g (yield: 68.6%) of 2-chloro-4,5-difluorobenzonitrile. Boiling point: 105°-107° C./37 mmHg; melting point: 35°-37° C. After completion of the reaction extracted with chloroform The chloroform extract was washed five times with water dried Then chloroform was distilled off The residue was distilled under reduced pressure
