178 g (1 mol) of 4-trifluoromethoxyphenol and 345 g (2.5 mol) of potassium carbonate were initially introduced into an autoclave which was then pressurized to 60 bar with carbon dioxide and heated at 200° C. for 4 hours. After cooling and releasing the pressure, the residue was dissolved in 1.5 l of hot water, the solution was filtered hot, the cooled filtrate was extracted using methylene chloride and the extract was clarified using active carbon. The pH was then adjusted to 1 and the precipitated product was filtered off with suction. 192 g of product having a melting point of 129° C. were obtained, which corresponds to 86% of theory.
