Reaction Steps
2-Hydroxy-3,6-di-hydroxycarbonylnaphthalene (12.1 g) was suspended in acetic anhydride (39.0 g), acetic acid (60.1 g) and N,N-dimethylformamide (40.0 g) and 4-dimethylaminopyridine (0.2 g) was added, followed by heating to 50° C. After heating for about 20 hours, the reaction solution was poured into a mixed solution of water (400 g) and methanol (100 g). The deposit was filtered and then washed with water to obtain 11.6 g of 2-acetoxy-3,6-di-hydroxycarbonylnaphthalene as grayish white powder (DSC analysis value: 239.2° C.).
