Reaktionsschritte

A mixture of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinolin-6-carboxylic acid (2 g), 32% aqueous formalin solution (2 ml) and 10% palladium-carbon (400 mg) in N,N-dimethylformamide (10 ml) was stirred under hydrogen atmosphere at room temperature for one hour. After removing the palladium-carbon by filtration, the solvent was removed under reduced pressure and the resulting residue was triturated with diethyl ether to obtain 1-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinolin-6-carboxylic acid (1.98 g) as yellowish powder.
