Hydrogen Bromide → HCID 15591128, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

In 7 ml of 47% by weight hydrobromic acid was suspended 0.2 g of 1-(4-fluorophenyl)-6-(4-methoxyphenyl)-4-oxo-1,4-dihydronicotinic acid was suspended, and the suspension was refluxed for 2 hours. After completion of the reaction, the reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature, diluted with 10 ml of water, adjusted to a pH of 12 with a 20% by weight aqueous sodium hydroxide solution, and washed with 20 ml of chloroform. This aqueous solution was then adjusted to a pH of 6.0 with acetic acid and the precipitated crystals were collected by filtration, and washed with water to obtain 0.15 g of 1-(4-fluorophenyl)-6-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-4-oxo-1,4-dihydronicotinic acid having a melting point of 185°-193° C.
