Reaktionsschritte

To a solution of 4-chloro-3-(trifluoromethyl)benzonitrile (1 g) and iron(3+) tris[(2Z)-4-oxopent-2-ene-2-oleate] (86 mg), and 1-methylpyrrolidin-2-one (2.8 ml) in THF (30 ml) was added a solution of 2M bromo(isobutyl)magnesium in diethyl ether (2.9 ml) under ice-cooling. The solution was stirred at room temperature for 30 minutes, and diluted with diethyl ether (30 ml), and then 1M HCl was carefully added thereto to complete the reaction. The reaction solution was extracted with EtOAc (100 ml), and the organic layer was dried over anhydrous MgSO4, and then filtered, and the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (n-hexane:EtOAc=100:0 to 95:5) to obtain 4-isobutyl-3-(trifluoromethyl)benzonitrile (320 mg) as a pale yellow liquid.
