Prepara_ on (4
The compound (XI) can be prepared by reacting the compound
(X) with an acid and/or acid anhydride such as acetic acid andlor
acetic anhydride. The reaction of this process can preferably be
carried out in the presence of alkali metal perhaloate (e.g.,
- sodium perchlorate, sodium periodate, potassium perchlorate, etc.),
alkaline earth metal perchlorate, (e.g., magnesium perchlorate,
calcium perchlorate, etc.) and the like, and an acid such as an
organic acid (e.g., formic acid, acetic acid,etc.) or an inorganic
acid (e.g., hydrochloric acid).
The reaction temperature is not critical ancl the reac-tion is
usually carried out under warming.

Preparation (6)
Suitable salt of the compound (XII) is a conventional acid
salt such as an inorganic acid salt (e.g., hydrochloride, etc.) and
an organic acid salt (e.g., p-toluenesulfonic acid salt, etc.).
~hen salt of said compound (XII) is used in this process , the
reaction is usually carried out in the presence of a base such as an
