Procedure

To 15.2 g (0.067 mole) of 3-(3-bromopropyl)cyanobenzene (the product of step (c)) in 55 ml methanol, 2.2 g potassium bicarbonate was added; to that mixture, 15.2 ml of 30% hydrogen peroxide was added dropwise. The reaction mixture was stirred for about 45 minutes. Then, 113 mg potassium carbonate was added and the resulting mixture was stirred overnight. Water (about 35 ml) was added to the reaction mixture and the resulting solution put in a freezer for about 50 minutes. The solid was collected by filtration and dried overnight to give 15.9 g of the above-identified product as a solid, melting point 109° C.
