Reaktionsschritte

Potassium t-butoxide (15.74 g, 140 mmol) in DMF (50 mL) was added to a solution of 2-fluoro-1-methoxy-4-nitrobenzene (12 g, 70.1 mmol) and 2-(4-chlorophenoxy)acetonitrile (11.75 g, 70.1 mmol) in DMF (100 mL) at −20° C. The reaction mixture was stirred for 1 h and then quenched with water. The aqueous layer was extracted with ethyl acetate. Organic layer was separated, washed with brine, dried over sodium sulphate, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The crude product was purified by flash chromatography using 3% ethyl acetate in hexane to afford title compound (3.6 g, 23.21%) as a solid. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ 8.05 (d, J=10.84 Hz, 1H), 7.27-7.23 (m, 1H), 4.28 (s, 2H), 4.05 (s, 3H); ESI-MS m/z=209 (M−H)−; LCMS Purity: 95%
