Procedure

To stirred solution of 2-methyl-3-nitrobenzoic acid (50 g, 276.2 mmol) in conc. H2SO4 (200 mL), 1,3-dibromo-5,5-dimethyl-2,4-imidazolidinedione (43.4 g, 151.8 mmol) was added portion wise at room temperature and reaction mass was stirred at room temperature for 5 h. On completion, reaction mass was poured on ice cold water, solid precipitated was filtered, resulting residue was washed with water and dried under vacuum giving the desired compound (71.7 g, 100%).
