A suspension of 12.4 g ethyl 1-cyclopropyl-7-(2,6-dimethyl-4-pyridinyl)-6-fluoro-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-3-quinolinecarboxylate in 320 ml water containing 3.5 g sodium hydroxide was heated at reflux for 2.5 hours. The reaction mixture was then decolorized with charcoal, filtered and brought to pH 5-5.5 with acetic acid. The solid that precipitated was collected, dried in vacuo and recrystallized from dimethylformamide to give 8.4 g 1-cyclopropyl-7-(2,6-dimethyl-4-pyridinyl)-6-fluoro-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-3-quinolinecarboxylic acid, m.p. 300°-302° C. (decompn.).
