Reaction Steps

18.6 g (0.1 mol) of 4-chloro-3-nitrobenzaldehyde and 6.4 g (0.11 mol) of potassium fluoride in 50 ml of dimethylformamide are stirred at 160° C. After 3 hours, 4-chloro-3-nitrobenzaldehyde is no longer detectable in the reaction mixture, according to gas chromatography. Instead, 4-fluoro-3-nitrobenzaldehyde has formed quantitatively.
