Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 16.23 g of ethyl 3-(6-iodo-2-oxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinolin-7-yl)propanoate in 200 ml of ethanol was added 150 ml of a 1 M aqueous sodium hydroxide solution, followed by stirring at room temperature for 2 hours. The reaction mixture was made weakly acidic by the addition dropwise of concentrated hydrochloric acid and diluted by the addition of water. The precipitated solid was collected by filtration and dried to obtain 8.88 g of 3-(6-iodo-2-oxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinolin-7-yl)propanoic acid as a pale brown solid.
