Abstract
A method is described for making organic polycarboxylic acids or anhydrides, such as aromatic ether bis(phthalic acid)s, based on a cyclic imide-cyclic anhydride exchange reaction at elevated temperatures in the presence of water. In addition to making organic polycarboxylic acid, organic imides are also generated.
