A solution of 26.4 g (0.4 mol) of 85% strength potassium hydroxide in 20 ml of water is then added dropwise, whilst stirring, and the reaction solution is subsequently further stirred for 3 hours at 100°-110° C. After cooling, the reaction solution is poured into ice water and the resulting precipitate is washed several times with water. The resulting crude product is then dried for 20 hours under a high vacuum at 70° C. and unconverted nitrochlorobenzene sublimes away during drying. The residue is recrystallised twice from ethanol. 12.4 g (15% of theory) of 2,2'-di-(p-nitrophenoxy)-biphenyl are obtained in the form of slightly yellowish crystals; melting point 158° C.
