The reaction mixture is evaporated, the residue is taken up in methylene chloride/water, the extracts are washed with saturated NaHCO3 solution, dried over sodium sulfate and evaporated and the residue is chromatographed with methylene chloride over 20 g of silica gel. After recrystallisation from methylene chloride/n-pentane, 2.40 g (45% of theory) of 3-ethylthio-5-nitrophthalic acid N-methylimide, with a melting point of 193°-4° C., are obtained.
