Participants

Reaction Steps

Preferably, providing 4-chloro-3-nitro[1,5]naphthyridine (referred to above) includes: providing 3-nitro[1,5]naphthyridin-4-ol in a carrier that includes N,N-dimethylformamide; combining the 3-nitro[1,5]naphthyridin-4-ol in the carrier with phosphorous oxychloride under conditions effective to form 4-chloro-3-nitro[1,5]naphthyridine; combining the mixture that includes the 4-chloro-3-nitro[1,5]naphthyridine with water under conditions effective to form solid 4-chloro-3-nitro[1,5]naphthyridine; and separating at least a portion of the solid 4-chloro-3-nitro[1,5]naphthyridine from at least a portion of the mixture that includes the water.
