Reaktionsschritte

4-Chlorobutryl chloride (388.0 g) was added at 40° to a solution of technical grade 8-aminoquinoline (3396.5 g) and triethylamine (278.3 g) in dimethoxyethane (2 l). After stirring overnight at ambient temperature the solids were filtered off. The filtrate was concentrated prior to additon of 13% potassium tert-butoxide in tert-butanol (2486 g) at 25°-30°. After two hours the mixture was neutralized with dilute hydrochloric acid. The slurry obtained by partial removal of the solvent was extracted three times with methylene chloride. The combined extracts were washed with water, dried over magnesium sulphate, filtered and concentrated. Ether (1 l) was added while cooling to 0°. Filtration, followed by vacuum-drying afforded 1-(8-quinolyl)-2-pyrrolidinone.
