Procedure

A solution of potassium hydroxide (582 mg) in water (6 mL) is added to a stirred solution of methyl 5-cyclopentyloxy-6methylthionicotinoate (920 mg) in methanol at room temperature and the mixture stirred for 6 hours. After concentrating in vacuo the mixture is diluted with water and acidified to pH 1 with aqueous 2 M hydrochloric acid. The product is extracted into ethyl acetate, the extracts treated with decolourising charcoal, dried (MgSO4) and evaporated. The residue is triturated with n-pentane to give 5-cyclopentyloxy-6-methylthionicotinic acid (640 mg) as a white solid, m.p. 177-8° C. [Elemental analysis: C, 56.90; H, 6.02; N, 5.52%. calculated: C, 56.90; H, 5.97; N, 5.53%.].
