After stirring at the reflux point of the solvent for 24 hours, the reaction mixture is concentrated to dryness under reduced pressure (2.7 kPa) to give a residue which is taken up in 30 cm3 of water and then triturated with 11.4 cm3 of N hydrochloric acid. After filtering off and drying the solid residue under reduced pressure (2.7 kPa) at 40° C., 1 g of 3-carboxy-1-(isoquinol-1-yl)-5-methyl-1H-indole is obtained in the form of a white solid. Mass spectrum (EI): m/e 302 (M+·), m/e 257.
