EX-659A) 3-Hydroxybenzaldehyde (12.22 g, 0.10 mol) and 100 mL of anhydrous methanol were combined in a 250 mL round-bottom flask. Sodium methoxide was slowly added as a 25 wt. % solution in methanol (21.61 g, 0.10 by mol), and the methanol was removed under vacuum. Then 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl-p-toluenesulfonate (25.42 g, 0.10 mol) was added, the flask was purged with nitrogen, and 100 mL of N-methyl pyrrolidine was added. The solution was stirred for 24 h at 90° C., quenched with water, and extracted with ether (3×). The combined ether layers were washed with 1 M NaOH (2×), water, and brine, dried over MgSO4, filtered, and evaporated to give 11.72 g of crude product Chromatography over silica gel eluting with 0-10% ethyl acetate in hexane followed by a second chromatography with toluene gave 5.24 g (26%) of the desired 3-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)benzaldehyde product as a pale oil. 1H NMR (C6D6) δ9.61 (s, 1H), 7.14 (d, 1H), 7.06 (s, 1H), 6.97 (t, 1H), 6.75 (m, 1H), 3.75 (m, 2H). 19F NMR (C6D6) δ−74.45 (t, 3F).
