Abstract: A method for producing 4-nitrosodiphenylamine, consisting in diphenylamine nitrozation with nitrites of alkali metals or ammonium nitrite in the presence of an acid and an organic solvent nonmiscible with water; said nitrozation being carried out under stirring with a speed determined by Reynolds number not below, 8-10.times.10.sup.3 or in the presence of polymers of methacrylic acid esters in an amount of 0.01-0.02% of the reaction mixture weight under stirring with a speed determined by Reynolds number equal to 4-5.times.10.sup.3 ; this is followed by rearrangement of the resultant N-nitrosodiphenylamine with anhydrous hydrogen chloride in an inert gas atmosphere in the presence of an alkyl 4-aminodiphenylamine in an amount of 0.5-1% of the N-nitrosodiphenylamine weight, with subsequent neutralization of the formed 4-nitrosodiphenylamine hydrochloride and isolation of the desired product.
