Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A mixture of the above benzamide (0.220 g, 1.25 mmol), POCl3 (1 mL) and diisopropylethylamine (0.5 mL) was heated to 105° C. for 16 hours and then cooled to room temperature. The solution was poured into ice water and neutralized with sodium carbonate, then extracted with EtOAc (2×20 mL). The combined organic extracts were dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo. Purification by flash chromatography eluting with hexanes/EtOAc (2:1) afforded 3-methoxy-4-dimethylaminobenzonitrile as an oil (0.20 g).
