Procedure
To a solution of 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde (740 mg, 6.0 mmol) and (3,3,3-trifluoro)-1-iodopropane (2.67 g, 12.0 mmol) in 10 mL dimethylformamide was added cesium carbonate (4.0 g, 12.3 mmol) and the resulting slurry stirred vigorously at 85° C. for 24 h. After cooling to room temperature the reaction mixture was poured into 100 mL water. Organics were extracted with ether (3×75 mL), dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated. The residue was subjected to chromatography on silica gel (30% ethyl acetate in hexanes) to give 4-(3,3,3-trifluoropropoxyl)benzaldehyde (24 mg, 2%). Used without further characterization.
