Reaction Steps

1-(5-Amino-2,4-difluorophenyl)-7-fluoro-6-nitro-4-oxo-1,4-dihydroquinoline-3-carboxylic acid (60 mg) was added to a 5% aqueous solution (3 ml) of sodium hydroxide, and the mixture was stirred at 40° C. for 2 hours. The reaction mixture was acidified with a 3% aqueous solution of citric acid, and solids formed were collected by filtration. The solids were subjected to azeotropic distillation with ethanol and toluene. Hexane was added to the residue to conduct filtration, thereby obtaining the title compound (49 mg) as a yellow powder.
