Equimolar quantities of 4-nitrophthalic anhydride and 5-nitroanthranilonitrile (Aldrich Chemical Co.) can be heated in a solvent such as dimethylformamide, dimethylacetamide or dimethyl sulfoxide to give N-(2'-cyano-4'-nitrophenyl)-4-nitrophthalimide, which can be isolated and purified by recrystallization. An alternative method of synthesis for this intermediate is the reaction of 2-chloro-5-nitrobenzonitrile with the potassium salt of 4-nitrophthalimide, using one of the solvents listed above.
