To a solution of benzaldehyde (3.0 g, 28 mmol) in anhydrous tetrahydrofuran (80 mL) was added zinc (2.4 g, 36 mmol). The mixture was heated at 75° C. under inert atmosphere and ethyl 2-bromo-2,2-difluoroacetate (4.4 mL, 34 mmol) was slowly added. The mixture was heated under the same conditions for 2 hours. After cooling, 2N hydrochloric acid (25 mL) was added until the complete consumption of unreacted zinc. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure. The crude reaction was dissolved in ethyl ether (150 mL) and washed with brine (2×100 mL), dried (Na2SO4), and the solvent removed under reduced pressure. The title compound was obtained (6.4 g, 99%) as yellow oil and was used in the next step without further purification.
