The suspension is stirred at this temperature for 1 h, 38.5 g (280 mmol) of 1-fluoro-2-methyl-4-nitrobenzene are then added and the reaction solution is heated at 80° C. for 20 h. The solution is allowed to cool and carefully diluted with water. The resulting crystalline precipitate is filtered off, washed with a little water and dried under reduced pressure. This gives 62 g (80% of theory) of the desired product.
