The reaction mixture was stirred at 100° C. for 8 h and cooled to RT. Water was added to the reaction mixture and extracted with EtOAc (2×500 mL). Organic layer was washed with brine and dried over Na2SO4. The organic layer was concentrated and purified by column using silica (100-200 mesh) and 0-5% EtOAc-hexane to provide 2′,4,6′-trifluorobiphenyl-3-carbaldehyde (54.3 g, 49.4% yield).
