Pd(PPh3)4 (272.7 mg, 0.236 mmol) was added. The resulting mixture was heated at reflux overnight. The reaction mixture was washed with water (200 ml) and extracted with ethyl acetate (150 mL*4). The combined organic extracts were dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel chromatography to give 2-methoxy-4′-(trifluoromethyl)biphenyl-4-carbonitrile (620 mg) as a colorless solid. 1HNMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 7.68 (d, J=8.4 Hz, 2H), 7.60 (d, J=8.4 Hz, 2H), 7.36-7.40 (m, 2H), 7.22 (s, 1H), 3.87 (s, 3H).
