Description:2-Hydroxy-5-nitro-nicotinic acid (2.7 mmol) in a mixture of NJV- dimethylformamide (2.7 mmol) and thionyl chloride (5 ml) was heated at 80 0C for 1 h. The mixture was allowed to cool and concentrated in vacuo. To the resulting residue was added ice-water (20 ml) and with vigorous stirring a precipitate formed.
