Reaction Steps

Ethyl 6,7-difluoro-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-1-(2,3,4-trifluoro-5-nitrophenyl)quinoline-3-carboxylate (280 mg) was dissolved in 10 ml of ethanol, 5 ml of acetic acid, and 5 ml of dichloroethane, to which was added 30 mg of 10% palladium on carbon. Under a hydrogen atmosphere, the solution was stirred overnight at room temperature. The catalyst was removed by a membrane filter and the filtrate was concentrated in vacua. Ethanol was added to the residue whereupon the solid was collected by filtration and washed with diethyl ether to give 200 mg of the title compound.
