The reaction stirred for one hour at ambient temperature at which time it was washed with 10% aqueous sodium hydroxide and 15% aqueous citric acid. Drying over anhydrous sodium sulfate, followed by evaporation under reduced pressure gave 2-chloroquinoline-4-carboxylic acid dimethylamide (1.5 g, 40%) as a tan solid. [M+H]+ 235.
