Hydrogen Bromide → HCID 12212094, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

5-nitro-isoquinoline (3 g) was dissolved in warm ethanol (40 ml) and hydrogen bromide was added (4.5 ml of a 48% w/v aqueous solution). The salt precipitated immediately, and the reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature, filtered, the residue washed with ethanol, and dried, to yield 3.95 g of 5-nitro-isoquinoline hydrobromide of melting point 250.5°C.
