3,6-dichlorophthalic anhydride, 4,5-dichlorophthalic anhydride, 3,4,5,6-tetrafluorophthalic anhydride, 3,4,5,6-tetrachlorophthalic anhydride, 3-methanesulfonyloxyphthalic anhydride.
Among the above-mentioned examples, 3-methanesulfonyloxyphthalic anhydride can be easily obtained from 3-hydroxyphthalic anhydride and methanesulfonyl chloride according to the process described in Tetrahedron Lett., 1988, 29, 5595-5598.
Similarly the compounds of the aforementioned formula (JU), in which R3 represents a hydrogen atom, starting materials for the compounds of the formula (IV), can be easily obtained, as described in the aforementioned preparation process (a), by a catalytic hydrogen reduction of the compounds represented by the aforementioned formula (IX) häving a nitro group in place of an amino group, corresponding to the amino group (R3 ='H) in the formula (UI).
The catalytic hydrogen reduction can be conducted in an adequate diluent and as examples of the diluent used in that case there can be mentioned ethers, for example, ethyl ether, methyl ethyl ether, isopropyl ether, butyl ether, dioxane, tetrahydrofuran (THF); alcohols, for example, methanol, etha-nol, isopropanol, butanol, ethylene glycol, and as catalytic reduction catalyst there can be mentioned palladium carbon, Raney nickel, platinum oxide.
It can be conducted at the temperatures generally between about O to about 100°C, preferably room temperature to about 80°C.
Said reaction can be operated under normal pressure to elevated pressure.
For example, an objective compound of the formula (UI), in which R3 represents hydrogen, can be obtained by hydrogenation of l mole of the nitro compound in a diluent, for example, ethanol in the presence of 0.1-10 % (w/w) palladium carbon.
Moreover, the compounds of the formula (IH), in which R3 represents hydrogen, can also be obtained by a reaction with a metal ete. instead of a catalytic hydrogen reduction.
As a process using a metal ete. there can be mentioned, for example, a process of treating iron powder in acetic acid, a process of reacting zinc dust under the neutral condition (Organic Syntheses Collective Vol. E, p. 447), a process of reacting stannic chloride under an acidic condition (Organic

Syntheses Collective Vol. H, p. 254), a process of reacting titanium trichloride under the neutral condition, ete.
As specific examples of the compounds of the formula (III), in which R3 represents a hydrogen atom,
there can be mentioned, for example,

The reaction can be conducted in a substantially wide range of temperature. It can be conducted at the temperatures in a range of generally about 0°C to about 200°C, preferably room temperature to about 150°C. Although said reaction is conducted desirably under normal pressure, it can be operated also under elevated pressure or under reduced pressure.

In conducting Üie reaction, the aimed compounds can be obtained, for example, by reacting l mole amount to a little excess amount of a compound of the formula QÖI) to l mole of the compounds of the formula (XT) in a diluent, for example, DMF, in the presence ofpotassium carbonate.
