Abstract
Particularly pure di-C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkyl 5-nitro-isophthalates are obtained in good yield and in a simple process by dissolving 5-nitro-isophthalic acid in a mixture of a C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkyl alcohol and a solvent which is miscible or only partially miscible with water, heating in the presence of a strong acid, thus forming a second, aqueous phase, crystallizing out, after the esterification reaction has ended, the di-C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkyl 5-nitro-isophthalate formed from the organic phase by cooling and removing the aqueous phase before or after the di-C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkyl 5-nitro-isophthalate is separated off.
