The resultant reaction mixture was then allowed to cool to 50° C. and diluted with hexane. The resultant suspension was filtered and the collected solid was sequentially washed with hexane and methylene chloride, then dried in vacuo to provide 6,7-dimethoxy-4-oxo-1,4-dihydroquinoline-3-carbonitrile as a brown solid (21.1 g, 63%). mp 330-350° C. dec; 1H NMR (DMSO-d6)δ 12.57 (s,1H), 8.59 (s, 1H), 7.44 (s, 1H), 7.03 (s, 1H), 3.89 (s, 3H), 3.87 (s, 3H); MS (ES+) m/z 231.0 [M+H].
