After cooling, 500 cc of ether were added to the mixture and the aqueous phase was decanted off. The organic phase was washed with water until the wash waters were neutral, dried over magnesium sulfate, treated with activated carbon, filtered and evaporated to dryness under reduced pressure. The residue was crystallized from methanol to obtain 9.61 g of 3-p-chlorobenzoyl phenyl acetonitrile melting at 86° to 90° C.
