[HPLC: yield 91-93%]. After cooling to room temperature tetrahydrofuran is removed under vacuum. The residue is taken up in toluene/water (1:1) (200 ml) and filtered. The aqueous phase is separated off. Solvent is removed by distillation and the crude product recrystallised from ethanol to give 4'-methylbiphenyl-4-carbonitrile as a solid, m.pt. 107-109° C. 1H NMR (CDCl3): 2.41(s,3H), 7.29(d,2H), 7.49(d,2H), 7.66 (d,2H), 7.71 (d,2H).
