An additional 25 ml of glacial acetic acid was added and the mixture heated at 75° C. for 3 hrs. The reaction mixture was cooled and poured into water. The product was collected by filtration, washed with water and dried to obtain 10.9 g of product (98.2% yield), mp 205°-206.5° C. Recrystallization from methanol gave purified 2-(4-(methylsulfonyl)phenoxy)-5-nitrobenzonitrile, mp 206°-207° C.
