49. Arylation of N-isopropyl-3-methylbenzamide with 4-chloroiodobenzene followed by treatment with trifluoroacetic anhydride resulted in formation of an 8:1 mixture of 2-(4-chlorophenyl)-5- methylbenzonitrile and 2-chloro-7-methylfluorenone (NMR analysis of crude reaction mixture). In contrast, arylation of the corresponding cyclohexylamide followed by reaction with trifluoroacetic anhydride afforded the nitrile exclusively (Table 1, entry 1). See the Supporting information for details.
