Procedure

To a solution of diethyl 2,3-quinolinedicarboxylate (0.162 mol) in ethanol (150 ml) is added a solution of sodium hydroxide (0.50 mol) in water (400 ml). The mixture is heated at reflux for 5 hours, and the ethanol then removed by distillation at atmospheric pressure. The solution is cooled in an ice bath, diluted with water (100 ml), and acidified with concentrated hydrochloric acid, added in small increments. The precipitate is filtered, washed with water, and air dried to afford the desired 2,3-quinolinedicarboxylic acid as the trihydrate; mp 271°-277° C.
