Procedure

1000 g of crude N-(5-amino4-chloro-2-fluorophenyl)acetamide (4.93 mol) which still contained 1 L of ethyl acetate was dissolved in 3900 g (49.3 mol) of pyridine at 20° C. To the yellow solution was added 845 g (5.42 mol) of chloromethanesulfonyl chloride at 20-30° C. over 1-2 hours. The solution was allowed to stir for 1 additional hour. 2300 g of pyridine were distilled off under reduced pressure at 40° C. To the remaining reaction mixture were added 5.3 L of water and 1.7 L of concentrated HCl (pH 3) whereupon the product precipitated. The slurry was cooled to 20° C. and filtered off. The filter cake was washed twice with 1300 mL of water. The product was dried in vacuo at 70° C. to yield 1500 g (92% purity) of the title compound as a solid melting at 210° C.
