Procedure
The mixture of 1-(4-bromo-2-methoxyphenyl)cyclobutanecarbonitrile (370 mg, 1.04 mmol) in aqueous KOH (80%, 5 mL) and ethylene glycol (5 mL) was heated at 100° C. and stirred for 16 hours. The mixture was added water (20 ml) and acidified by concentrated HCl to pH=1 and extracted with dichloromethane. The combined organic layers was dried over sodium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo to give the title compound (327 mg, 82%) as a yellow solid. 1H NMR (500 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 12.05 (s, 1H), 7.19 (d, 1H), 7.13 (s, 1H), 7.12 (d, 1H), 3.72 (s, 3H), 2.59 (m, 2H), 2.30 (q, 2H), 2.05 (m, 1H), 1.78 (m, 1H)
