The reaction mixture was diluted with dichloromethane (40 ml) and washed with water (3×50 ml). Organics were separated, dried over sodium sulphate and solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure to yield crude product (86 mg) as a yellow oil. Purification by flash chromatography on silica gave product 4-benzyloxy-6-(3-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-pyrimidine-2-carbonitrile (54 mg).
