General procedure for the synthesis of 2-benzyloxy-3-benzyloxymethyl-5-sec-aminobiphenyl-4-carbonitriles 3a-e: An equimolar mixture of 1a (344 mg, 1.0 mmol) and 2 (270 mg, 1.0 mmol) was stirred in a suspension of powdered KOH (207 mg, 1.5 mmol) in DMF (10 mL) for 2 h at room temperature. The reaction mixture was diluted with distilled water and the precipitate was filtered. The crude product was purified on a silica gel column using DCM as eluent.(...)
