Reaction Steps

520 g of 3-fluoro-4-methyl-5-nitro-benzoic acid are hydrogenated in 3,500 ml of dioxane with 50 g of Pd-C catalyst (5% strength) at 50° C. and under 30 bar. The catalyst is then filtered off with suction and the solution is concentrated. 403 g of 3-fluoro-4-methyl-5-amino-benzoic acid are obtained as crude material.
