Reaction Steps

A solution of 7-methoxy-4-methyl-6-nitro-2,10-dihydro-9-oxa-1,2,4a-triaza-phenanthren-3-one (prepared from 2-amino-5-methoxyphenol using the similar procedure detailed in Example #56, Step A-D and Example #106, Step A, 1 g, 3.42 mmol) and lithium chloride (0.44 g, 10.27 mmol) in DMF (10 mL) was heated at 150° C. for 3 h. The reaction mixture was cooled to ambient temperature and the solvent was removed in vacuo. The residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel (eluting with 50% EtOAc in petroleum ether) to give 7-hydroxy-4-methyl-6-nitro-2,10-dihydro-9-oxa-1,2,4a-triaza-phenanthren-3-one (0.65 g, 68%) as a red solid. TLC (eluting with 50% EtOAc in petroleum ether) Rf=0.5.
