210 parts of 2-dichloromethyl-1-methyl-5-nitroimidazole are stirred in 800 parts by volume of 10 percent strength by weight sulfuric acid for 2 hours at 100° C. The mixture is then neutralized with 550 parts of 6N sodium hydroxide solution, with intense cooling, and the resulting solution is extracted with 4 times 500 parts by volume of methylene chloride. The combined extracts are dried. 126 parts (82% of theory) of 2-formyl-1-methyl-5-nitroimidazole of melting point 93° C. (after recrystallization from toluene) are obtained.
