Reaktionsschritte

Subsequently, in a stream of argon, 1.5 L of a 10% aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide was added to 51.0 g (244 mmol) of 1-azaphenanthrene-5,6-dione, and heated and stirred at 85° C. for 90 minutes. After the mixture was cooled to room temperature, the precipitate was filtered out. The filtrate was extracted with chloroform and concentrated, and added to the precipitate, whereby a crude material was obtained. The crude material was purified by chromatography on silica gel with toluene/ethyl acetate=10:1 to give 16.8 g of 4-azafluorene-9-one (37.9% yield).
