The reaction mixture was cooled, diluted with ethyl acetate, washed with brine, dried (MgSO4), concentrated and purified by flash column chromatography (silica gel, 0 to 30% ethyl acetate/hexane) to give 4-chloro-3-cyanomethyl-5-methyl-benzonitrile as a white solid (0.3707 g, 48%). 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3): 7.61 (s, 1H), 7.51 (s, 1H), 3.83 (s, 2H), 2.40 (s, 3H).
