Procedure
Concentrated sulfuric acid (1 mL) was added to (E)-3-ethoxy-N-(3-methoxy-4-nitro-phenyl)-acrylamide (225 mg) with cooling and the resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1.5 hours. The reaction mixture was then poured into ice-water and stirred for 1 hour. The solid which crushed out was collected by filtration and dried under vacuum to give 142 mg of 7-methoxy-6-nitro-1H-quinolin-2-one as a brown solid. MS=221 [M+H]+.
