Participants

Reaction Steps

4,7-Dihydro-7-oxo-1H-pyrazolo[4,3-b]pyridine-6-carboxylic acid (7.0 g, 39 mmol) was suspended in Dowtherm A (250 ml) and the mixture was heated under reflux under nitrogen for 2.5 h. After cooling, the mixture was diluted with 60°-80° petrol and filtered. The precipitate was washed well with petrol and dried to give the crude product as an off-white solid (3.9 g, 74%). Recrystallisation from aqueous ethanol/ether gave the title compound as very fine needles, m.p. >320° C.
