The solvent is then distilled off and the residue is heated for 5 hours at 220° C. After cooling to 160° C., 10 parts of concentrated sulfuric acid are added; the mixture is kept at 160° C. for 3 hours, whilst distilling off the water formed. Distillation under reduced pressure (21 mbar) gives 318.7 parts of 5-methoxy-2,3,3-trimethyl-indolenine (melting point 53°-54° C.), corresponding to 84.3% of theory.
