Reaction Steps

A 1.2 g portion of 4-fluorobenzonitrile and 1.0 g of potassium carbonate were added to 25 ml DMF solution of 1.2 g of 3-hydroxybenzaldehyde and stirred overnight with heating at 100° C. The reaction solution was poured into ice water, and then work-up and purification were carried out in the standard method to obtain 1.6 g of 4-(3-formylphenoxy)benzonitrile as an oily substance. EI: 223.
