Reaction Steps

A solution of 27.9 g. of 1-chloro-3-(4'-fluoro-4-biphenylyl)-butan-3-ol in 60 ml. of dimethylsulfoxide is added, at 80°, to a solution of 7.6 g. of NaCN in 100 ml. of dimethylsulfoxide. The mixture is warmed to 80°-90° for 6 hours, poured onto ice and worked up in the customary manner to give 1-cyano-3-(4'-fluoro-4-biphenylyl)-butan-3-ol, m.p. 118°-120°.
