Procedure

Under cooling 2.0 mL of concentrated nitric acid are added to 2.8 mL of sulphuric acid. Subsequently 350 mg of 6-fluoroisoquinoline (23) are added, the reaction is warmed up to room temperature and allowed to stir overnight. The reaction mixture is poured on ice, extracted with dichloromethane and adjusted to alkaline pH by addition of sodium hydroxide. The aqueous layer is extracted again with dichloromethane. The dichloromethane layer is dried over magnesium sulfate and evaporated to give 90 mg of 6-Fluoro-5-nitro-isoquinoline, which can be used without further purification. Rt=1.03 min (Method #1). Detected mass: 193.0 (M+H+).
