반응 단계

4-Trifluoromethylbenzaldehyde (20.0 g) was dissolved in acetic acid (100 ml) and treated with hydrogen in the presence of platinum (0.5 g) at ambient temperature and pressure for 10 hours. The solution was filtered, poured into water (400 ml), basified by addition of aqueous sodium hydroxide solution (2 M), extracted with ether (3×100 ml). The combined extracts were washed with water (2×100 ml), dried over anhydrous magnesium sulphate, evaporated to dryness. The residue was distilled to give 4-trifluoromethyltoluene (14.3 g) b.p. 131°-132° C. as a colourless mobil liquid.
