Procedure

To a solution of 4-fluoronitrobenzene (3.76 mL, 35.4 mmol) in DMSO (35 mL) at room temperature was added cesium carbonate (7.09 mL, 89.0 mmol) followed by 3-ethyl-3-oxetanemethanol (4.48 mL, 42.5 mmol). The mixture was heated to 70° C. for 2 hours. After cooling water was added and the resulting precipitate was filtered, washed with water, and dried in a vacuum oven to provide the title compound (8.28 g, 98% yield).
