To a solution of 3-ethoxycarbonyl-4H-quinolizin-4-one (2.17 g) in methanol (65.2 ml) was added dropwise 6 N aqueous sodium hydroxide (6.5 ml) at room temperature. After stirring for 20 minutes, water (10 ml) was added. After stirring for 20 minutes, water (30 ml) was also added. After stirring for an hour, the reaction mixture was acidified to pH 3 with 4N aqueous hydrochloric acid. The precipitate was filtered and washed with water to give 4H-quinolizin-4-one-3-carboxylic acid (1.75 g) as pale yellow crystal. mp 233° C.
