N-Butyllitium in hexane (95 ml, 1.55M) was added dropwise to 4-Bromo-4'-trifluoromethylbiphenyl (40 g) in 250 ml of THF under N2 at -70° C. After addition the mixture was stirred for a further 10 mins and then dry dimethylformamide (19.49) in a solution of dry tetrahydrofuran (100 ml) was added dropwise. The mixture was then allowed to warm to room temperature in the absence of coolant. After stirring for 1.5 hours water was added and the mixture extracted with ether. The water washed and dried extracts were evaporated to give p-(4-trifluoromethylphenyl)benzaldehyde (34.5 g) m.p. 70°.
