Procedure
A mixture of [2-(methoxycarbonyl-phenyl-amino)-phenyl]-acetic acid (16 g, 55.5 mmol) and polyphosphoric acid (29 g, 167 mmol in terms of P2O5) is heated to 100° C. for 4 hours. To the reaction mixture, methanol (50 ml) is added dropwise at 65° C. with stirring. The resulting suspension is cooled to room temperature, filtered and washed with methanol (40 ml). The white crystals are dried to yield 12.2 g of pure title compound (80%).
