5-[(3,5-Difluoro-phenyl)-hydroxy-methyl]-2-fluoro-benzonitrile (3.5 g, 13.3 mmol) and sodium iodide (20 g, 133 mmol) are stirred in acetonitrile (50 mL) under nitrogen at 60° C. To the reaction mixture is gradually added chlorotrimethylsilane (17 mL, 134 mmol) over a period of 8 hours. The mixture is diluted with ethyl acetate and washed with water, saturated aquoeus sodium bicarbonate, 10% aquoeus sodium thiosulfate and brine. Purification of the crude by chromatography over silica gel (EtOAc/hexane 5:100) afforded 3.1 g of the title compound (88% yield).
