collected, washed several times with water and
recrystallized from 2-ethoxyethanol, yielding
10.6 g of the acetamido compound (41%, m.p.:
220-222 °C). This compound (10.0 g, 0.031 mol)
was mixed with concentrated hydrochloric acid (52
ml) and 2-ethoxyethanol (200 ml) and then was
refluxed for 18 h. The solvent was evaporated un-
der reduced pressure and the residue was poured
into concentrated sodium hydroxide solution (80
ml). The solid was filtered, washed several times
with water and recrystallized from ethanol/water
(1:1) yielding 4.76 g of 4a (55%, m.p.: 140 °C).

These compounds are insoluble in common or-
ganic solvents for this reason is not possible to ob-
tain their !H NMR and 13C NMR spectra.
