Procedure
To a solution of 2-(1H-imidazol-2-yl)-benzonitrile hydrochloride (3 g, 0.014 mol) in water (20 ml) was added sodium hydroxide solution (2.5 N, 5 ml). Filtration of the resultant precipitate and recrystallization from ethyl acetate gave 2-(1H-imidazol-2-yl)-benzonitrile; Anal. Calcd. For C10H7N3: C, 70.99; H, 4.17; N, 24.84. Found: C, 70.74; H, 4.08; N, 25.24.
