Procedure

To a solution of 2,3-pyridinedicarboxylic acid anhydride (19.4 g) in tetrahydrofuran (260 mL) was added aniline (11.8 mL) and the mixture was refluxed 2 hours. The reaction mixture was concentrated. Acetic anhydride (65 mL) was added to the reaction mixture, which was refluxed for 1.5 hours. After cooling in ice bath, the reaction mixture was poured in ice water (200 mL) and stirred for 1 hours. The precipitate was collected by filtration. It was washed with water and then washed with ethanol on heating to give the title compound (20.9 g) having the following physical data.
