Reaktionsschritte

To a solution of 4,5-dioxo-1,4,5,6,7,8-hexahydro-quinoline-3-carboxylic acid ethyl ester (1.6 g, 6.8 mmol) in ethanol (100 mL) was added iodine (4.8 g, 19 mmol). The mixture was refluxed for 19 h and then concentrated under reduced pressure. The resulting solid was washed with ethyl acetate, water and acetone, and then recrystallized from DMF to give 5-hydroxy-4-oxo-1,4-dihydro-quinoline-3-carboxylic acid ethyl ester (700 mg, 43%).
