Procedure

2,6-Dimethyl-4-pyridone (Chem. Abs., 84, 4811x, (1976)) (52.56 g, 0.427 mol) was dissolved in water (100 ml) at 50° C., and fuming nitric acid (40 ml) was added dropwise. The mixture was cooled in ice for 45 minutes, and then the pale buff crystals were filtered off, washed with a little water, and sucked dry to give 2,6-dimethyl-4-pyridone nitrate salt, (46.79 g, 59%). This material was added in portions to a mixture of fuming sulphuric acid (23 ml) and fuming nitric acid (31 ml) at room temperature, and the mixture was heated to 100° C. and held there for 51/2 hours. The mixture was poured onto ice and neutralised with saturated aqueous potassium carbonate. The pale yellow solid which precipitated was filtered off and placed in a Soxhlet extractor and extracted with boiling isopropanol. The isopropanol was removed under reduced pressure to give the title compound, (26.5 g, 63%).
