Procedure
A mixture 2-(3,4-difluorophenyl)acetonitrile (25.00 g, 163 mmol) and 2-bromoethyl ether (22.8 mL, 163 mmol) in ether was added dropwise through an addition funnel to a mixture of sodium 2-methylpropan-2-olate (39.2 g, 408 mmol) in DMF (163 mL) at 0° C. The reaction was then allowed to warm to ambient temperature and stirred for 3 hours. The reaction mixture was quenched with 12N HCl, diluted with 400 mL of EtOAc, added to a separatory funnel, partitioned with NaHCO3 (saturated, aqueous), washed 2 times with 100 mL of NaHCO3 (saturated, aqueous), separated, dried over Na2SO4, and concentrated in vacuo to give the title compound which was used without further purification. MS (m/z)=224 (M+H)+.
