To the reaction mixture was added water and the mixture was adjusted to pH 8 with potassium carbonate. The isolated precipitate was collected by filtration and the precipitate was dissolved in a mixture of ethyl acetate and tetrahydrofuran. The mixture was washed with water, dried over magnesium sulfate and evaporated in vacuo. The residue was recrystallized from a mixture of ethanol and diisopropyl ether to give ethyl 3-(1H-tetrazol-1-yl)benzoate (2.44 g).
