Reaction Steps

4-chloro-benzonitrile was reacted with nitric acid to obtain 3-nitro-4-chloro-benzonitrile melting at 100°-101° C. which was reacted with N-hydroxy-phthalimide to obtain 0-(4-cyano-2-nitrophenoxy)-phthalimide melting at 233°-234° C. The latter was reacted to obtain 0-(4-cyano-2-nitro-phenyl)-hydroxylamine melting at 154°-155° C.
