A suspension of MnCl2 (0.25 g, 1.98 mmol) and LiCl (0.17 g, 3.955 mmol) in a mixture of 2 ml of anhydrous tetrahydrofuran and 0.38 ml of dimethoxyethane (3.955 mol) is stirred at room temperature until, after approximately 30 minutes, a homogeneous medium is obtained. The PdCl2/dppp complex (0.0023 g, 0.1 mol %) and the o-bromobenzonitrile (0.72 g, 3 955 mmol) are then added and then a solution of p-tolylmagnesium chloride in tetrahydrofuran (1.80N, 2.86 ml, 5.14 mmol) is added over 30 minutes. After stirring for 30 minutes, the reaction mixture is treated as described in Example 4. The o-(p-tolyl)benzonitrile is thus obtained with a yield of isolated product of 95%.
