The crude methylation product, upon chromatography on silica gel, yielded 1-benzyl-3-ethoxycarbonyl-4-methoxy-6-methyl-2(1H)-quinolinone (11.5 g). This product (7.13 g) in dry toluene (80 ml) was cooled to -78° C. and a 1M solution of di-isobutyl aluminum hydride (30 ml) was added dropwise in 10 min. After 2.5 hours stirring at -78° C. the reaction mixture was worked up by stirring with aqueous ammonium chloride/1N hydrochloric acid followed by extraction with methylene chloride. The crude reduction product was chromatographed on silica gel and crystallized from ethyl acetate/hexane to give 1-benzyl-3-formyl-4-methoxy-6-methyl-2(1H)-quinolinone as a yellow solid (7.8 g). That the expected product was obtained was confirmed by the spectral data: NMR (CDCl3): δ2.40 (s, 3H, CH3), 4.18 (s, 3H, OCH3), 10.58 (s, 1H, CHO); MS (FAB): m/e 308 (M.+ +1).
