Reaktionsschritte

(2R)-2-Butanol (0.99 g, 0.013 mol) was dissolved in DMF (50 ml) and the solution cooled to 0° C. To this was added sodium hydride, 60% dispersion in mineral oil (1.54 g, 0.036 mol) in a portion-wise manner, the mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 10 minutes after complete addition. 2-Fluoro-5-formylbenzonitrile (2.0 g, 0.013 mol) was then added and the reaction mixture allowed to warm to room temperature (slowly within the ice bath) and the reaction mixture was stirred overnight at room temperature. The reaction mixture was then cooled to 0° C., quenched with brine and diluted with EtOAc (˜25 ml). The mixture was partitioned and the organic fraction extracted with water (˜30 ml), the combined organics were dried by passing through a phase separating cartridge and evaporated to dryness under reduced pressure to give the crude product. The crude residue was purified on a 40+M Biotage cartridge, eluting with a 20 to 50% mixture of EtOAc in hexane. This gave the title compound (310 mg) as a yellow oil. δH (d6-DMSO, 400 MHz): 9.88 (1H, s), 8.30 (1H, s), 8.15 (1H, d), 7.49 (1H, d), 4.73-4.81 (1H, m), 1.63-1.79 (2H, m), 1.33 (3H, d), 0.95 (3H, t) ppm.
