To a stirred solution of 4-hydroxybenzoic acid (40 mmol) in absolute EtOH (350 mL) was added solid NaOEt (84 mmol). After 15 minutes, 4-bromobutyronitrile (40 mmol) was added and the mixture was heated overnight at 90° C. on an oil bath. The mixture was cooled to room temperature, volatiles were removed, the residue was taken up in ice and adjusted to pH 6 with 1N sulfuric acid. Solids were collected by vacuum filtration, washed with water and dried to give 4-(cyanopropyloxy)benzoic acid (4.8 g, 58%).
