Procedure

The starting material, 7-benzyloxy-4-chloro-6-methoxycinnoline hydrochloride, was obtained by heating a solution of 7-benzyloxy-4-hydroxy-6-methoxycinnoline (11 g, 39 mmol) in thionyl chloride (180 ml) containing DMF (1 ml) at reflux for 1 hour. After cooling, excess thionyl chloride was removed by evaporation and azeotroped with toluene. The residue was triturated with ether, filtered off, washed with ether and dried under vacuum to give 7-benzyloxy-4-chloro-6-methoxycinnoline hydrochloride as a cream solid (13.6 g, quantitative).
