Abstract
Nitrosation agent(s), contained as by-products in nitrated aromatic compounds after nitration with nitric acid or nitration acid, are removed by a water treatment, wherein the water is distilled off at least partially in vapor form, advantageously under reduced pressure. In the further reaction of the nitrocompounds treated in this manner undesired nitrosamines are practically not formed. The process is especially suitable for the manufacture of 4-di-n-propylamino-3,5-dinitrobenzotrifluoride (Trifluralin), a valuable herbicide, substantially free from nitrosamine(s).
