Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2-chloro-4-nitrophenol (3.5 g) and 2-(bromomethyl)benzonitrile (4.0 g) in N,N-dimethylformamide (50 mL) was added potassium carbonate (3.7 g), and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 30 min. After the completion of the reaction, water (50 mL) was added, and the mixture was stirred for 10 min. The resultant pale-yellow solid was collected by filtration. The residue washed with diisopropyl ether, and dried to give the title compound (5.04 g) as pale-yellow crystals.
