Procedure
A solution of 2-(2-chloro-4-methoxy-phenyl)propionitrile (19 g, 0.097 mol) and methyliodide (7 mL, 0.11 mol) in dry DMF (100 mL) was flushed with argon for 2 min and cooled to 0° C. Sodium hydride (60% oil susp., 4.4 g, 0.11 mol) was added in small portions. The thick suspension was stirred for another 18 h at 25° C. and then poured into water (300 mL) and extracted with Et2O (3×100 mL). The organic phase was dried (Na2SO4) and the solvent was removed under reduced pressure leaving a yellow oil which was distilled. Bp: 103-106° C./0.06 mbar, clear oil that solidifies on standing. Yield: 17.5 g (83%). GCMS: >99%
