Procedure

A mixture of commercially available 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde (2.000 g; 16.40 mmol), 2,2-difluoroethyl trifluoromethanesulfonate (3.506 g; 16.40 mmol), and Cs2CO3 (8.004 g; 24.60 mmol) in anh. DMF (30 ml) was stirred at rt, under nitrogen, for 18 h. Water and AcOEt were added and the organic layer was washed with water, dried over anh. MgSO4, filtered, and concentrated to dryness under reduced pressure affording 4-(2,2-difluoroethoxy)benzaldehyde as an orange oil. LC-MS (conditions A): tR=0.65 min.; no ionisation.
