Procedure
To a mixture of phenylacetaldehyde (0.7 mL, 5.8 mmol) and trimethylsilyl cyanide 0.8 mL, 6.0 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (2 mL) was added 2-(4-aminophenyl)-1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoropropan-2-ol (Oakwood, 1.6 g, 6.1 mmol). The resulting mixture was stirred at ambient temperature over 18 h. The reaction mixture was diluted with CH2Cl2 and water. The organics were washed several times with water, dried (MgSO4), and concentrated in vacuo. Purification by flash chromatography (8:1 hexanes/EtOAc) afforded the title compound as a pale yellow solid (1.4 g, 63%). MS (ES+) m/z 389 (MH+).
