The condensation of a series of arylacetonitriles with aldehydes can be carried out by mixing equivalent amounts of reagents with neat powdered KOH at room temperature for 3-60 min depending on the aldehyde steric hindrance. At higher temperature (110°C), yields were generally higher and purity increased within very short reaction times (1-5 min). With pentamethylphenylacetonitrile, a phase transfer agent was necessary to give a satisfactory yield.
