Participants

Reaction Steps

4-Ethoxy-3-methoxyaniline (2.6 g) and diethyl ethoxymethylenemalonate (3.4 g) were reacted in the same manner as in Experimental Example 1 to obtain 6-ethoxy-3-ethoxycarbonyl-7-methoxy-4(1H)-quinolone (2.5 g). The compound (2.3 g) was ethylated with potassium carbonate (3.3 g) and ethyl iodide (6.1 g) in the same manner as in Experimental Example 9 to obtain 6-ethoxy-3-ethoxycarbonyl-1-ethyl-7-methoxy-4(1H)-quinolone (1.8 g). This compound (1.4 g) was hydrolyzed in the same manner as in Experimental Example 9 to obtain a carboxylic acid (1.2 g), which was then decarboxylated in the same manner as in Experimental Example 9 to obtain 6-ethoxy-1-ethyl-7-methoxy-4(1H)-quinolone (compound 49, 210 mg).
