Reaktionsschritte

8-Hydroxyquinaldine (5.0 g) and potassium carbonate (13.02 g) are mixed together in a stainless steel bomb and heated to 170° C. under 800 p.s.i. CO2 for 6 days. The reaction is then cooled and the resulting solid is partitioned between EtOAc and water. The organic layer is extracted with water (3×). The combined aqueous layers are washed with EtOAc (3×). The aqueous layer is then acidified to pH 4.5 with conc. HCl. The resulting solid is collected, dried and recrystallized from i-PrOH to yield 1.86 g of the title compound as a gold solid.
