Procedure

A mixture of 2 g of 4-(imidazo[1,2-a]pyridin-2-yl)phenylacetonitrile, 10 ml of glacial acetic acid and 10 ml of concentrated hydrochloric acid is heated under reflux for 1 hour. The solvent is distilled off under reduced pressure, and water is added to the residue. The mixture is alkalified with 10% sodium hydroxide, and then filtered. The filtrate is adjusted to pH 6 by addition of 10% hydrochloric acid. The crystalline precipitate is filtered off and washed with water to give 1.2 g of 4-(imidazo[1,2-a]-pyridin-2-yl)phenylacetic acid as colorless crystals melting at 220°-222°C with decomposition.
