Hydrochloric Acid → 5-(4-Fluorophenyl)-4-oxo-1,4-dihydropyridine-3-carboxylic acid

Participants

Reaction Steps

A suspension of Example A7 (0.750 g, 2.87 mmol) in 3M NaOH (7.5 mL, 22.50 mmol) was heated at 100° C. for 1.5 h. The mixture was cooled to RT, acidified to pH 2 with 3M HCl and the resulting solid was collected via filtration and dried to afford 5-(4-fluorophenyl)-4-oxo-1,4-dihydropyridine-3-carboxylic acid (669 mg, 100%) as a white solid. MS (ESI) m/z: 234.1 (M+H+).
