Reaction Steps

4.2 Grams of potassium hydroxide were dissolved in 200 ml of methanol, then 10 g of 5-hydroxy-3,4-dihydrocarbostyril were added thereto. Next, 10 g of 2-bromoethanol were added dropwise thereto under refluxing conditions. The reaction mixture was further refluxed for 4 hours, then was concentrated. To the residue thus obtained was added water, and the insoluble matter was collected by filtration, and was washed with water, then recrystallized from methanol to yield 2.1 g of 5-(2-hydroxyethoxy)-3,4-dihydrocarbostyril in the form of colorless needle-like crystals. Melting point: 176°-178° C.
