Procedure
To an ice-cooled orange suspension of pyridinium chlorochromate (3.659 g; 16.896 mmol) in anhydrous DCM (20 ml) was added dropwise a solution of 3-(4-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-propan-1-ol (2.300 g; 11.264 mmol) in anhydrous DCM (35 ml). The resulting black suspension was allowed to warm-up to rt and was stirred under nitrogen for 3 h. The reaction mixture was directly filtered over silicagel using DCM. After concentration to dryness under reduced pressure, the product 3-(4-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-propionaldehyde was isolated as a pale yellow oil (1.970 g; 86.5%). LC-MS: tR=0.95 min.; [M+H]+: no ionisation.
