After completion of the dropwise addition, the mixture is stirred for a further hour at 20° C., the resulting solution is extracted twice with 100 ml of water at a time, and the organic solvent is then distilled off. Yield: 209.3 g of crude product, of melting point 96° to 102° C. This crude product is introduced into dilute sodium hydroxide solution, consisting of 450 ml of water and 112 g (2.8 mols) of NaOH, and the mixture is heated to 95° C. and kept at this temperature for 3 hours, whilst distilling off the methanol formed during hydrolysis of the 2-nitro-4-tolylcarbamic acid methyl ester to the amino group. The mixture is cooled to 60° C. and stirred for a further 30 minutes at 60° C., and the product is filtered off and washed alkali-free with water. The moist product is dried to constant weight in vacuo at 60° C. Yield: 144.4 g of dry product (94.6% of theory); purity: 99.7%.
