Methyl 3-hydroxybenzoate (10.00 g, 65.72 mmol) was dissolved in dimethylformamide (100 ml). With stirring the solution under ice-cooling, potassium carbonate (13.63 g, 98.58 mmol) and chloroacetonitrile (4.99 ml, 78.86 mmol) were added in that order, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 12 hours. The reaction solution was poured into ice-water and the crystals precipitated were collected by filtration. The resulting crystals were dissolved in chloroform, and the solution was washed with 5% potassium carbonate aqueous solution, 10% citric acid aqueous solution and brine in that order, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and then concentrated under reduced pressure. By crystallizing the resulting residue from diethyl etherhexane, methyl 3-cyanomethoxybenzoate (811.80 g, 94%) was obtained.
