The mixture was heated at reflux for 10 minutes and then the solvent was removed in vacuo. The residue was treated with water (20 ml) and hydrochloric acid (2N; 10 ml). The precipitated solid was filtered off and recrystallized from aqueous ethanol to give 3-cyano-5-methylsalicylic acid (2.7 g), m.p. 193°-194° C.
