Procedure

3-Hydroxy-4-methoxy-benzaldehyde (560, 2.9 g, 19.5 mmol), 2-iodo-1,1,1-trifluoroethane (561, 2.2 mL, 23 mmol), and potassium carbonate (3.7 g, 27 mmol) were dissolved in N,N-dimethylformamide (100 mL). The solution was stirred at 90° C. overnight under an atmosphere of nitrogen. The reaction was poured into water, extracted with ethyl acetate, and washed with brine. The organic layer was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated. The compound was isolated by silica gel column chromatography eluting with 25% to 50% ethyl acetate in hexanes to give white powder (562, 1.6 g, 40%).
