Procedure
A solution of 4-ethynyl-2-fluoro-benzonitrile (1.29 g, 8.9 mmol) in EtOAc (30 mL) was placed in a Parr pressure bottle and palladium on carbon (130 mg of 10% on carbon) was added. The bottle was placed on the Parr hydrogenation apparatus and shaken under 10 psi of hydrogen pressure. After shaking for two hours the black suspension was filtered through a pad of Celite. The pad was washed thoroughly with EtOAc, and the combined filtrates were concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was taken up in toluene and concentrated under reduced pressure to afford 4-ethyl-2-fluoro-benzonitrile (1.19 g, 89% yield). 1H-NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ 7.55-7.50 (1H, m), 7.11-7.03 (2H, m), 2.72 (2H, q, J=7.6 Hz), 1.26 (3H, t, J=7.6 Hz).
