A solution of 44.8 g (0.83 mole) of sodium methoxide in 1.6 liters of methanol was added dropwise at room temperature to a solution of 160.0 g (0.83 mole) of pentafluorobenzonitrile (XVIII) in 2.5 liters of methanol, whilst stirring. When the addition was complete, the mixture was allowed to stand at room temperature overnight. At the end of this time, the solvent was removed by evaporation under reduced pressure, and the residue was shaken with a mixture of water and toluene. The toluene layer was separated, washed with water and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate; the solvent was then removed by evaporation under reduced pressure. The residual solid was washed with hexane to afford 160.7 g of 4-methoxy-2,3,5,6-tetrafluorobenzonitrile (XIX) as colorless needles.
