After the reaction mixture was cooled, the insoluble matters formed were obtained by filtration, washed with water, dried and recrystallized from methanol-chloroform. 25 Grams of 6-chloro-7-hydroxy-3,4-dihydrocarbostyril having the melting point of 264°-266° C. was obtained as in the form of colorless needle-like crystals.
