Reaktionsschritte

A slurry of NaCN (435 mg, 8.9 mmol), 2-[4-(bromomethyl)-3-chlorophenyl]-1,3-benzoxazole (940 mg, 2.9 mmol), DMF (30 mL) and H2O (30 mL) was stirred at rt for 12 h. The reaction mixture was poured into brine (250 mL) and filtered. The resultant colorless solid was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel (EtOAc:hexanes 1:9) to afford the desired [4-(1,3-benzoxazol-2-yl)-2-chlorophenyl]acetonitrile as a colorless solid: 1H NMR (CDCl3, 300 MHz) δ 8.32 (s, 1H), 8.19 (dd, 1H), 7.77–7.80 (m, 1H), 7.70 (d, 1H), 7.59–7.61 (m, 1H), 7.38–7.41 (m, 2H), 3.92 (s, 2H). MS (ESI) 269 (M+H)+.
