However, the sulfuric acid used as a catalyst was concentrated during the reaction, and after the reaction with concentrated sulfuric acid, bQ M was neutralized and removed as a salt from the reaction compound 714. There is a problem that you have to do it. This removal operation is complicated because the generated sulfate often becomes fine crystals, and side reactions also occur. It is also possible to directly purify the 7L acid ester by distillation without neutralizing the sulfuric acid, but lllllIS! in the distillation system!
