Procedure
Commercially available isoquinoline-6-carboxylic acid (15.4 g, 89 mmol) and thiosemicarbazide (12.2 g, 133 mmol) were mixed in 150 ml phosphorus oxychloride. The mixture was heated at 80° C. for 60 hours. After removing the excess phosphorus oxychloride via rotatory evaporation at a reduced pressure, the remaining residue was mixed with ice water and the pH increased to pH 12 with KOH. After filtration and washing with water, a yellow amorphous solid 1a was obtained as the crude product (17 g, y (yield)=85%). It was used directly for next step. A pure sample of the product was obtained by subjecting the crude product to a silica gel column chromatography with a gradient of 1-5% 2M NH3 methanol solution in dichloromethane as the eluent. 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6): δ 7.73 (s, 2H), 8.02 (d, J=6 Hz, 1H), 8.27 (m, 2H), 8.38 (s, 1H), 8.66 (d, J=6 Hz, 1H), 9.45 (s, 1H). MS (API-ES) m/z (%): 229 (100%, M++1).
