To a solution of 3,5-dimethyl-4-hydroxy-benzonitrile (5.0 g, 34.0 mmol) in THF (40 mL), rac-(2,2-dimethyl-[1,3]dioxolan-4-yl)-methanol (4.49 g, 34.0 mmol) followed by triphenylphosphine (13.4 g, 50.9 mmol) is added. The mixture is cooled with an ice-bath before DEAD (8.87 g, 50.9 mmol, 23.4 mL of a 40% solution in toluene) is added dropwise. The mixture is stirred at rt for 1 h, the solvent is removed in vacuo and the residue is purified by CC on silica gel eluting with heptane:EA 99:1 to 92:8 to give rac-4-(2,2-dimethyl-[1,3]dioxolan-4-ylmethoxy)-3,5-dimethyl-benzonitrile (7.20 g) as a pale yellow oil; LC-MS: tR=0.99 min, [M+1]+=not detected.
