In the course of addition, the temperature rises to 50° C.-60° C. and the solution assumes a blue-violet color. It is stirred for a further 40 minutes at about 60° C. and the precipitate which separates out is then removed by filtration from the mother liquor, which is retained and processed further. The precipitate is dissolved in water, the solution is filtered and the filtrate is acidified with acetic acid, whereupon 12.5 g of 3-amino-1,2,4-benzotriazine-1,4,-di-N-oxide (71% of theory) separates out in the form of reddish-golden crystals which melt, with decomposition, at 220° C. On acidifying the mother liquor with acetic acid, a further 3.2 g (18% of theory) of 3-amino-1,2,4-benzotriazine is obtained and after re-crystallization from dimethylformamide, this material melts, with decomposition, at 220° C. Total yield reported is: 89% of theory.
