To the suspension, a solution of ethyl 5-fluoro-2-nitrophenoxyacetate (15.86 g) in acetic acid (65 ml) and ethyl acetate (65 ml) was dropwise added, and the resultant mixture was heated at 60° to 80° C. under reflux for 3 hours. After removal of residue by filtration, the filtrate was extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was washed with water and sodium bicarbonate solution, dried and concentrated to give 7-fluoro-2H-1,4-benzoxazin-3(4H)-one (6.82 g). m.p., 186.7° C.
