The reaction was then heated at 90° C. for 16 h, cooled to ambient temperature and partitioned between ethyl acetate and water. The organics were washed with brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered and pre-adsorbed onto silica gel. Purification by dry flash chromatography on silica gel, eluting with isohexane (containing 1% methanol) on a gradient of ethyl acetate (10-40%) afforded 3′-fluoro-5′-nitrobiphenyl-2-carbonitrile as a cream-coloured solid (10.3 g, 72%): δH (400 MHz, CDCl3) 7.54-7.61 (2H, m), 7.65 (1H, ddd, J 8, 2 and 2), 7.74 (1H, ddd, J 8, 8 and 2), 7.84 (1H, dd, J 8 and 2), 8.03 (1H, ddd, J 8, 8 and 2), 8.22-8.24 (1H, m).
