Procedure

3-(2,3-Dihydro-5-fluoro-benzofuran-3-yl)-1-propanol, prepared as described in EXAMPLE 11, (51 g) was dissolved in 300 ml of dichloromethane and 0.5 ml of dimethyl formamide was added. During 20 min 50 ml of thionyl chloride was added dropwise followed by stirring for 3 h. Ice cold water was added, the organic phase separated, dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo giving 46 g of 3-(3-chloro-1-propyl)-2,3-dihydro-5-fluoro-benzofuran as an oil. Sodium cyanide (12 g) was suspended in dimethyl sulfoxide (180 ml) and heated to 80° C. A solution of 3-(3-chloro-1-propyl)-2,3-dihydro-5-fluoro-benzofuran (42 g) in 40 ml of dimethyl sulfoxide was added dropwise followed by heating to 140° C. for 15 min. After cooling ether and water were added, the ether phase separated, washed with water and dried over magnesium sulfate. Removal of solvent in vacuo left a viscous oil which was applied to a silica gel column giving 4-(2,3-dihydro-5-fluoro-benzofuran-3-yl)butyronitrile as an oil (20 g).
