9.5 g of 3,4-dimethoxy-5-nitrobenzoic acid are suspended in 95 ml of thionyl chloride. The suspension is stirred at 80° for 1 hour. By two-fold evaporation with the addition of absolute toluene there are obtained 10 g of 3,4-dimethoxy-5-nitrobenzoyl chloride which is dissolved in 100 ml of tetrahydrofuran. This solution is added dropwise to 300 ml of 28 percent aqueous ammonia. The mixture is subsequently stirred at 40° for 2 hours and cooled to 5°. The crystalline precipitate is filtered off. There is obtained 3,4-dimethoxy-5-nitrobenzamide of m.p. 182°-185°.
