Aniline → HCID 54716335, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 12.63 g of aniline and 10.0 g of 1,2-dihydro-4-hydroxy-1-phenyl-3-quinolinecarboxylic acid, ethyl ester in 250 ml of toluene was refluxed for 24 hours in a soxhlet apparatus containing 10 g of 4 Å molecular sieves. Evaporation of the volatiles afforded a residue which was purified by means of high pressure liquid chromatography (silica gel: dichloromethane as the eluent). The resultant solution was degassed and evaporated. Recrystallization of the residue from diethyl ether yielded 7.55 g (65%) of 1,2-dihydro-4-hydroxy-1-phenyl-N-phenyl-3-quinolinecarboxamide, m.p. 120° C.
