Procedure
To a toluene (200 mL) solution of 3-aminobenzotrifluoride (10.4 grams, 0.06 mol) was added 2-fluorobenzaldehyde (8.0 grams, 0.06 mol). The mixture was heated under reflux with a Dean-Stark trap for 6 hours. The solvent was removed in a rotary evaporator to give 2-fluorobenzylidene 3-trifluoromethylaniline (16.8 grams, 97% yield, yellow liquid) whose structure was confirmed by nuclear magnetic resonance, infra-red spectroscopy, and mass spectroscopy analysis.
