The subject matter of the present invention is a process for the purification of a virtually anhydrous organic liquid other than DMSO alone, in order to decrease its content of alkali and alkaline-earth metal and metal cations, characterized in that it consists essentially in placing this organic liquid in contact with one or more cation exchange resins and in then separating from the resin(s) the purified organic liquid, said resin or at least one of said resins being a sulphonic resin in --SO.sub.3 H or --SO.sub.3 NH.sub.4 form based on a polystyrene-divinylbenzene copolymer having a divinylbenzene content of from 50 to 60% by weight, without taking the sulphonic groups into account. |

DETAILED DESCRIPTION We claim: 1. Process for purification of a virtually anhydrous organic liquid other than dimethyl sulphoxide alone, to decrease its content of alkali and alkaline-earth metal and metal cations, comprising placing the organic liquid to be purified in contact with at least one cation exchange resin in acidic or ammonium form and then separating from the resin the purified organic liquid, said resin or at least one of the resins being a sulphonic resin in --SO. sub. 3 H or --SO. sub. 3 NH. sub. 4 form based on a polystyrene-divinylbenzene copolymer having a divinylbenzene content of from 50 to 60% by weight, without taking the sulphonic groups into account, the water content of the organic liquid being lower than or equal to 1% by weight. 2. Process according to claim 1, wherein that in that the liquid to be purified is an organic compound exhibiting a dielectric constant . epsilon. ranging from 5 to 50 and a pKa higher than 2, or a mixture of such compounds with each other and/or with dimethyl sulphoxide (DMSO). 3. Process according to claim 2, wherein the liquid to be purified is selected from 1-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP), isopropyl alcohol, benzyl alcohol (BYA), dimethylacetamide, monoethanolamine (MEA), ethyl acetate, butyl acetate, ethyl lactate, butyl lactate, sulfolane, gylcerol, acetic acid, acetone, propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate and DMSO/MEA, DMSO/BYA and DMSO/BYA/MEA mixtures wherein DMSO is dimethyl sulphoxide. 4. Process according to claim 1, wherein at least two resins are used, at least one of which is a sulphonic resin such as defined in claim 1 and the other(s) optionally a chelating resin. 5. Process according to claim 1, wherein the at least one resin is in the H. sup. + form. 6. Process according to claim 1, wherein the contact of the liquid to be purified with the exchange resin(s) takes place at a temperature ranging from 19 to 80. degree. C. 7. Process according to claim 6 wherein the temperature is between 20 and 50. degree. C. 8. Process according to claim 1, wherein the water content is less than or equal to 0
