Conditions

Temperature
100 °C

Procedure

In methanol (250 ml) was suspended 5-nitrosalicylic acid (50.0 g, 273 mmol), and to the mixture was added sulfuric acid (6 ml). The mixture was stirred at 100° C. for 24 hours and the cooled to room temperature. The precipitated insoluble materials were filtered, which were washed with hydrous methanol (containing 20% of water) and methanol, and dried under reduced pressure to give methyl 5-nitro-salicylate (38.5 g, 195 mmol, 72%).
