Synthesis and characterization of 1-hydroxy-3-methylacridin-9(10H)-one and 3-hydroxy-1-methylacridin-9(10H)-one

Abstract

The syntheses and isolation of 1-hydroxy-3-methylacridin-9(10H)-one and 3-hydroxy-1-methylacridin-9(10H)-one have been achieved by the condensation of methyl anthranilate and 5-methyl resorcinol in heptanol and in the presence of catalytic amount p-toluene sulphonic acid.
