Hydrochloric Acid → HCID 58409088, compound

To a solution of 2-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-2-fluoroacetonitrile (0.263 g, 1.29 mmol) in THF (2 ml) was added borane-DMS complex (0.134 ml, 1.42 mmol), and the reaction was heated to reflux under argon for one hour. The reaction was cooled to ambient temperature, and 0.4 ml of concentrated hydrochloric acid were added. The reaction mixture was again heated to reflux for 30 minutes, then cooled to ambient temperature and treated with 1M sodium hydroxide until the pH reached 13. The reaction was extracted three times with ether, and the combined organic layers were washed with saturated sodium chloride, dried over anhydrous potassium carbonate, filtered, and concentrated to yield 217 mg of the title compound (80.9% yield).
