Procedure

2-Chloro-6-bromo-quinoline (142.5 g, 0.6 mol; European Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, 35(10), 931-940; 2000; colourless crystals m.p.: 99.8-101.4° C.) was dissolved in methanol (700 mL), then sodium methoxide (43.9 g; 0.8 mmol) was added and the resulting reaction mixture was refluxed for 16 hours. The reaction mixture was cooled at r.t. and poured in ice-water (1.8 L), the titled product precipitated as a cream solid (133 g, 95%), melting at 157.9-161.1° C. C10H8BrNO2, MW: 238.09. MS (ESI) m/z: 239 (M+1). 1H-NMR (200 MHz, CDCl3) ppm: 4.06 (s, 3H), 6.91 (d, 1H), 7.64-7.75 (m, 2H), 7.88 (d, 2H).
