Procedure
2-[4-Methylphenoxy]benzoic acid, prepared as described by D. J. Carini in J. Medicinal Chem., 33, 1330- (1990), is converted to the corresponding acid chloride with phosphorous trichloride in benzene. The acid chloride is reacted with ammonia to give 2-(4-methylphenoxy)-benzenecarboxamide. The carboxamide is then dehydrated by treatment with thionyl chloride to give 2-(4'-methylphenoxy)benzonitrile.
