Procedure

Potassium permanganate (2.25 mmol) and potassium hydroxide (1.79 mmol) were added to a solution of isothiazolo[5,4-b]pyridin-3-ylmethanol (1.08 mmol) in water (4 mL) and the resulting solution was allowed to react for 3 h at rt. The reaction mixture was filtered through Celite and was extracted with ethyl acetate (3×10 mL). The pH of the combined aqueous layers was adjusted to 2 by the addition of 0.6 M hydrochloric acid. The slurry was stirred for 5 min and the solids were collected by filtration to provide isothiazolo[5,4-b]pyridine-3-carboxylic acid in 42% yield as a light yellow solid.
