32 g (0.217 mol) of isoindole-1,3-dione in 160 mL of DMF were treated with 11.75 g (0.294 mol, 1.35 eq) of NaH (60% in oil) over 45 min at 0° C. 22.17 g (0.294 mol, 1.35 eq) of chloro-acetonitrile were added, and the reaction was stirred over night. The reaction mixture was poured into 1.5 L of water, and the precipitate was collected by filtration, washed with Et2O and dried under high vacuum to afford 36.1 g (89%) of (1,3-dioxo-1,3-dihydro-isoindol-2-yl)-acetonitrile as a white solid, MS: 187 (MH+).
