Procedure
To a solution of 3-chloro-benzaldehyde (20 g, 0.142 mol) in nitromethane (100 mL) were added magnesium sulfate (37.6 g, 0.312 mol) and phosphazene base P1-t-bu-tris(tetramethylene) (4.43 g, 0.014 mol). The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 h. After concentration in vacuo, the residue was purified by flash chromatography (25% EtOAc/hexane) to yield the title compound (26.4 g, 100%) as a green-yellow oil. 1H NMR (300 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 7.53 (1H, s), 7.35-7.42 (3H, m), 6.23 (1H, broad s), 5.32-5.33 (1H, m), 4.90 (1H, dd, J=3.2, 12.4 Hz), 4.60 (1H, dd, J=1.2, 12.4 Hz).
