Hydrochloric Acid → 4-{[7-(Cyclohexylamino)-1-cyclopentyl-6-fluoro-4-oxo-1,4-dihydroquinolin-3-yl]oxy}benzoic acid

Participants

Reaction Steps

5.0 ml of ethanol and 1.5 ml of aqueous 6 M sodium hydroxide solution were added to 93 mg of 4-{[7-(cyclohexylamino)-1-cyclopentyl-6-fluoro-4-oxo-1,4-dihydroquinolin-3-yl]oxy}benzonitrile, followed by heating under reflux for 2 days. After cooling, the reaction system was neutralized with 1 M hydrochloric acid. Water was added and the solid precipitated was collected by filtration. By crystallizing the resulting solid from ethyl acetate-hexane, 65 mg of 4-{[7-(cyclohexylamino)-1-cyclopentyl-6-fluoro-4-oxo-1,4-dihydroquinolin-3-yl]oxy}benzoic acid was obtained.
