A mixture of 175 g 2-cyanomethyl 1,4-benzodioxan, 250 ml water, 250 ml acetic acid and 100 ml concentrated sulphuric acid are heated to reflux for 48 hours. The reaction mixture is then poured in 5000 ml water and the whole is kept under stirring. The thus found crystalls are filtered, washed with water and dried, giving rise to 172 g (1,4-benzodioxan-2yl)acetic acid melting at 95°.
