Procedure

To a solution of 4-(trifluoromethyl)phenol (3 g, 18.51 mmol) and 4-fluorobenzaldehyde (2.3 g, 18.53 mmol) in DMF (20 mL), was added Cs2CO3 (7.24 g, 22.21 mmol). The mixture was heated with a microwave condition at 120° C. for 4 h. After cooling, the reaction mixture was diluted in water, extracted with EA. The organic phase was washed with water and brine, dried over Na2SO4 and evaporated in vacuo to afford the title compound (4.68 g, 95% yield) as a brown oil. LCMS: rt=3.58 min, [M+H+]=267
