After diluting with 10 ml water and cooling to 0° C. the mixture was alkalized (pH 12.6) by dropwise addition of 4N NaOH and extracted three times with toluene. Concentration of the toluene phase in vacuo gave 0.05 g recovered starting material. The aqueous phase was cooled and adjusted to pH=6.3 by addition of 6 N HCl. The resulting precipitate was isolated and dried in vacuo at 40° C. to give 1-(4-hydroxy-phenyl)-4-[1,2,3]triazol-1-yl-butan-1-one. Yield: 0.96 g (83%).
