Reaction Steps

Aluminum chloride (108 mg, 0.81 mmol) was added to a dichloromethane solution (5 ml) of 5-fluoro-3-(4-isopropoxy-2-methoxyphenyl)-8-propoxy-1H-quinolin-4-one (120 mg, 0.31 mmol). The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour. Water and dichloromethane were added to the reaction mixture, and separated. The organic layer was then washed with water. The washed organic layer was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was then purified by silica gel column chromatography (dichloromethane:methanol=10:1). The purified product was concentrated under reduced pressure, and the residue was recrystallized from ethyl acetate to thereby obtain 100 mg of powdery white 5-fluoro-3-(4-hydroxy-2-methoxyphenyl)-8-propoxy-1H-quinolin-4-one (yield: 90%). Melting point 251-253° C.
