Reaction Steps

4-(1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)benzonitrile (200 mg, 1.175 mmol, prepared as described in WO 2006/067462 PCT/GB2005/005007 Page 57) in sulfuric acid (3 mL, 0.00 μmol)(50%, 3 ml) was refluxed at 120° C. for 4 h. Cooled down, diluted with water and adjusted pH to 4 with NaOH and Na2CO3, then extracted with ethyl acetate. After the solvent was removed, a white solid was obtained 4-(1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)benzoic acid (180 mg, 0.952 mmol, 81% yield). 1H-NMR (DMSO-d6, 500 MHz): δ8.80 (1H, s), 8.13 (2H, d, J=8.55 Hz), 8.01 (2H, d, J=8.55 Hz), 7.98 (1H, s).
