2-(4-bromophenoxy)benzonitrile

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:

Conditions: temp:120.01; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: A mixture of 2-fluorobenzonitrile (28.8 g), 4-bromophenol (36.9 g), potassium carbonate (58.9 g) and dimethylformamide (30 ml) was heated with stirring under nitrogen at 120° C. for 5 hours. The mixture was allowed to stand overnight at ambient temperature and then partitioned between ethyl acetate and water. The organic layer was separated, washed, dried and evaporated to give an oil which solidified on standing. The solid was triturated with petroleum ether b.p. 40-60° C. and filtered to give 2-(4-bromophenoxy)benzonitrile. was heated to stand overnight at ambient temperature partitioned between ethyl acetate and water The organic layer was separated washed dried evaporated to give an oil which The solid was triturated with petroleum ether b.p. 40-60° C. filtered
