Reaction Steps

Into a 250 mL three-necked, round-bottomed flask equipped with a magnetic stirrer, a condenser, and nitrogen inlet, 3,5-bis(4-methoxyphenylcarbonyl)nitrobenzene (6.2 g, 15.8 mmol) and freshly prepared pyridine hydrochloride (100 g) were placed. The mixture was heated under reflux until the solution became homogeneous. It took about 4 h. After cooled down 120° C., the mixture was poured into water. The resulting precipitate was collected and dried. The yellow solid was slurred in boiling toluene and collected by suction filtration to give 5.5 g (96% yield), m.p. 230-231.8° C. Anal. Calcd. for C20H13NO6: C, 66.12%; H, 3.61%; N, 3.86%; O, 26.42%. Found: C, 66.07%; H, 3.64%; N, 3.67%; O, 17.01%. FT-IR (KBr, cm−1): 1321, 1538 (Ar—NO2), 1602, 1648 (carbonyl), 3420 (Ar—OH). Mass spectrum (m/e): 363 (M+, 100% relative abundance). 1H-NMR (DMSO-d6, δ in ppm): 6.93-6.96 (d, 4H, Ar), 7.76-7.79 (d, 4H, Ar), 8.23 (s, 1H, Ar), 8.58 (s, 2H, Ar), 10.66 (s, 2H, OH). 13C-NMR (DMSO-d6, δ in ppm) 115.48, 126.02, 126.65, 132.84, 134.83, 139.44, 147.61, 156.80, 162.70, 191.36.
