The method of retrosynthetic analysis is very effective, but it requires a great knowledge of chemical compounds, classes of compounds, chemical reactions, reaction conditions etc.
In general, having two ortho-, para-directing, electron-withdrawing groups in the reactant is sufficient to allow this sort of reaction to occur.
Now consider this retrosynthesis problem: The only solution is to first start with a halogen in the desired ipso position, as it is an ortho-, para-director and will allow you to add the NO electron-withdrawing groups, after which you can swap out the Cl for the CN: Note that the larger halogens Br and I don’t participate as well in this chemistry.

F is actually better than Cl as a leaving group for this sort of substitution, however we do not know how to make fluorinated benzene, so here our only option was to use a chlorinated one.
Now consider this reaction: At first it seems to violate the rule we have just learned, that you need electron-withdrawing groups to enable nucleophilic aromatic substitution.
The target molecule is broken down into smaller and smaller fragments.
The actual synthesis can then be designed based on the retrosynthetic analysis.
