Versuchsvorschrift

Alternately, combine methyl 2-methoxy-5-(1H-tetrazol-1-yl)benzoate (13.3 g, 56.8 mmol) and methanol (150 mL). Add 1 M aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide (62.5 mL, 62.5 mmol). Heat to reflux. After 30 minutes, add methanol (50 mL) and water (50 mL) and continue the heat at reflux. After 1 hour, concentrate in vacuo to remove most of the solvent. Adjust the pH to about 1 to 2 using a 1 M aqueous hydrochloric acid solution to give a solid. Collect the solid by filtration, rinse with water, and dry to give 2methoxy-5-(1H-tetrazol-1-yl)benzoic acid.
