Reaction Steps

8-Fluoro-3,4-dihydro-1H-quinolin-2-one [prepared according to the procedure found in EP0524846] (2.62 g, 0.0159 mol) is dissolved in concentrated sulfuric acid (20 ml) and cooled to −5° C. Nitric acid (70%, 1.02 ml, 0.0159 mol) is added dropwise and the reaction stirred at −5° C. for 20 minutes. The mixture is poured onto ice and the resulting precipitate collected by filtration, washed well with water, and dried under vacuum. Purification by flash column chromatography (30% ethyl acetate/hexane) gives the title compound as a light yellow solid (2.50 g, 75%); [M+H]+=211.
