Participants

Reaction Steps

0.08 g (0.21 mmol) of 3-(2-carboxy-7-chloro-5-fluorobenzofuran-4-yl)-1-methyl-6-trifluoromethyl-2-(1H)-pyridone was dissolved in 10 ml of ethanol, and 4.0 mg (0.04 mmol) of sulfuric acid was added thereto, followed by refluxing for 2 hours. Ethanol was distilled off under reduced pressure. Then, the obtained residue was poured into water and extracted with diethyl ether. After washing with water, the organic layer was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. Diethyl ether was distilled off under reduced pressure. Then, the obtained crude crystals were washed with n-hexane to obtain 0.09 g (yield: 99%) of the desired product. Melting point: 118-120° C.
