Procedure

8-Hydroxyquinoline (50.0 g) and potassium carbonate (142.8 g) are mixed together in a stainless steel bomb and heated at 170° C. under 1200 p.s.i. CO2 for 7 days. The reaction is then cooled and the resulting solid is partitioned between water (6 L) and EtOAc (1 L). The organic layer is extracted with water (2×300 mL). The combined aqueous layers are extracted with EtOAc (3×500 mL). The aqueous layer is then acidified to pH 4.5 with conc. HCl. The resulting solid is collected, dried and triturated with i-PrOH to yield 51.97 g of the title compound as a tan solid.
