Participants

Reaction Steps

2-Methyl-4-nitro-benzoyl chloride (16.1 g.) is added all at once to a suspension of 2-amino-7-chloro-1,8-naphthyridine (14.5 g.) in pyridine (161 cc.). The temperature rises to 40° C. The mixture is stirred for a further hour and water (640 cc.) is then added. The precipitate is filtered off and washed with water (225 cc.) and then with acetone (150 cc.). After recrystallisation from acetonitrile (1,600 cc.), 2-methyl-4-nitro-N-(7-chloro-1,8-naphthyridin-2-yl)-benzamide (26 g.) melting at 229° C is obtained.
