The reaction mixture was diluted with water, and the aqueous layer was extracted with CH2Cl2 (3×150 mL). The combined organics were washed with brine, dried (MgSO4), filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure to provide 3-(tert -butyldimethylsilyloxymethyl)-benzonitrile (9.1 g, 99%) as a clear oil: 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3) δ 7.51 (s, 1H), 7.42 (d, J=6 Hz, 1H), 7.35-7.28 (m, 1H), 4.75 (s, 2H), 0.94 (s, 9H), 0.11 (s, 6H)
