3-(Hydroxymethyl)benzonitrile Use and Manufacturing

A suspension of the compound (120 mg) obtained in step 3 of Example 74, 18-crown-6 ether (18 mg), potassium carbonate (95 mg) and 3-cyanobenzyl alcohol (80 mul) in dimethyl sulfoxide (1.1 ml) was stirred at 80C for 17 hours. After cooling, the reaction solution was diluted with water, followed by extraction with ethyl acetate. The extract was washed with water and saturated saline in this order and then dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure, and the residue obtained was purified by silica gel column chromatography (n-hexane/ethyl acetate) to obtain the title compound (92.8 mg). 1H-NMR (CDCl3) delta: 1.67 (9H, s), 2.51 (3H, s), 4.13 (2H, s), 5.46 (2H, s), 6.62 (1H, dd, J = 7.7, 1.3 Hz), 7.03-7.10 (1H, m), 7.16-7.23 (1H, m), 7.35-7.41 (1H, m), 7.42 (1H, dd, J = 8.0, 1.3 Hz), 7.48-7.59 (3H, m). MS (m/z) : 450 (M+H)+.
