Reaction Steps
4-Bromo-2-bromomethyl-1-fluoro-benzene (1.2 g, 3.7 mmol) and sodium cyanide (2.0 g, 4.1 mmol) were combined in DMSO (15 mL) and stirred at 90° C. for 2 hours. Once no starting material was seen by analytical tlc, the mixture was worked-up with EtOAc and H2O to give the title compound.
