Method A To a solution of 4-chlorobenzyl cyanide (5.62 g, 4.00 mmol) and 3-chloro-benzaldehyde (Aldrich) (6.06 g, 4.00 mmol) in iPrOH (250 mL) was added 4 N NaOH (5 mL) dropwise at rt and the reaction mixture was stirred at rt for 10 min to give a white suspension. The solid was filtered and washed with water and iPrOH and then dried overnight in vacuum to give (Z)-3-(3-chloro-phenyl)-2-(4-chloro-phenyl)-acrylonitrile (9.33 g, 85.1%) as a white powder which was used in the next step without further purification.
