Reaktionsschritte

To a reactor is added 30 ml of H2O and 15 g of 50% aqueous NaOH. The solution is heated to 65° C. and 3.85 g (0.051 mol) of cobalt oxide and 5 g (0.022 mol) of 2-methyl-3-quinolinecarboxylic acid hydrochloride are added with stirring. A chilled solution of 13 g (0.18 mol) of chlorine in 40 g of chlorine in 40 g of 25% aqueous NaOH (~24% aqueous NaOCl) is added over 3 hours. The solution is then stirred for 15 hours and an additional aliquot of 24% aqueous NaOCl (0.36 mol total) is added over 3 hours. After a total of 36 hours, the solution is filtered, chilled to 15° C. and acidified to pH 3. The solid material is removed by filtration. A product of 2.3 g of 2,3-quinolinedicarboxylic acid is obtained. This represents a yield of 77% based on consumed 2-methyl-3-quinolinecarboxylic acid. The reaction is illustrated as follows: ##STR13##
