Into a round bottom flask containing triphenylphosphine (27.3 g, 104 mmol) and 3-chloro-4-hydroxy-benzonitrile (10 g, 65 mmol) was added anhydrous tetrahydrofuran (600 mL). The mixture was stirred briefly under nitrogen, di-tert-butyl azodicarboxylate (24 g, 104 mmol) was then added. The mixture was stirred for a few minutes, followed by addition of anhydrous isopropanol (6.23 mL, 81.4 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight under nitrogen. The crude product was purified by flash chromatography using 1:4 (v/v) ethyl acetate/heptane as eluent. Fractions were dried to give 3-chloro-4-isopropoxy-benzonitrile (12.2 g, 91%) as a red-orange semi-solid.
