  • Method for the preparation of substituted 1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-cinnoline-3-carboxylic acid, esters and salts thereof, and intermediates used in their preparation
    Patent number: 5304672
    Abstract: A method for the preparation of compounds of the formula ##STR1## wherein X represents a group of the formula OR.sub.1 or NR.sub.1 R.sub.2, wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 independently represent H or an organic group that forms a stable covalent bond with the N or 0 of said X; Y is H or an organic group that forms a stable ester with the adjacent COO group; R is an alkyl or aryl group optionally substituted with one or more stable organic substituents; each R.sub.3 independently represents a stable organic group; and n is an integer from 0 to 3;the method using new intermediates of the formula ##STR2## wherein R.sub.3 and Y have the foregoing meanings;W is either F or Cl; andR.sub.9 is a hydrocarbon such as a C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl or alkenyl group.
