Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

An aqueous solution (80 ml) containing 4,5-dimethyl-1H-indole-2,3-dione (9.8 g, 0.056 mmol) and sodium hydroxide (8.1 g, 0.2 mol) was heated to 85° C., and then 10% aqueous hydrogen peroxide (43 ml) was slowly added. The obtained solution was stirred at 85° C. for 2 hours, cooled to room temperature, and filtered. The filtrate was adjusted to pH 1 using sulfuric acid, to obtain 6-amino-2,3-dimethylbenzoic acid as crystals.
