The reaction mixture was heated at 100° C. for 2 hours, cooled to room temperature, and treated with 300 mL of cold water. The resulting precipitate was filtered, washed with water, and air dried. Chromatography on SiO2 (100% dichloromethane) afforded 5.2 g of 4-cyano-2-methylphenyl acetate as a colorless oil (99% yield), which solidified on standing.
