Reaction Steps
A mixture of 5-chloro-7-iodo-2-(4-phenoxy-benzyl)-2,3-dihydro-isoindol-1-one (0.675 g, 1.42 mmol), Pd(PPh3)4 (0.162 g, 0.14 mmol), sodium cyanide (0.089 g, 1.85 mmol), and CuI (0.027 g, 0.14 mmol) in acetonitrile (5 mL) was stirred at 80° C. for 18 h. Workup and silica gel column chromatography using 2:1 hexanes-ethyl acetate (typically 2:1 hexane-EtOAc) afforded 6-chloro-3-oxo-2-(4-phenoxy-benzyl)-2,3-dihydro-1H-isoindole-4-carbonitrile (0.307 g, 58%). 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3): δ (ppm) 4.32 (s, 2H), 4.77 (s, 2H), 6.95-7.38 (m, 9H), 7.63 (s, 1H), 7.75 (s, 1H). GC-MS: m/z 374 (M)+, 297 (M−77)+, 281 (M-93)+.
