Procedure

6-Aminocaproic acid is reacted with 3-benzyloxy-2-methyl-4-pyrone in an exactly analogous procedure to that described in Example 2 for the reaction of the latter compound with β-alanine to give 3-benzyloxy-1-(5'-carboxypentyl)-2-methylpyrid-4-one in 70% yield, this compound being obtained after recrystallisation from ethanol/acetone (1:1 v/v) as white crystals, m.p. 145°-147° C.
