14.5 g (57.6 mmol) of 4-chloromethyl-2-(4-isopropyl-phenyl)-thiazole (prepared from 4-isopropyl-thiobenzamide and 1,3-dichloroacetone in analogy to the procedure described in example 4 a]) and 4.08 g (83.4 mmol) of sodium cyanide in 50 ml of dimethyl sulfoxide were stirred at 40° C. for 2 hours. Then, the reaction mixture was poured into a mixture of ice and water and was subsequently extracted with 3 portions of 75 ml of tert-butyl methyl ether. The combined organic phases were washed with water, then with brine and dried with anhydrous sodium sulfate. After evaporation of the solvent, 13.4 g (96% of theory) of [2-(4-isopropyl-phenyl)-thiazol-4-yl]-acetonitrile were obtained as brown solid.
