Quinoline-3-carboxylic acid → 5,6,7,8-Tetrahydroquinoline-3-carboxylic acid

참여 물질

반응 단계

A mixture of 3-quinolinecarboxylic acid (1.73 g, 10.0 mmol) in trifluoroacetic acid (20 ml) with platinum dioxide (200 mg) was shaken in a Parr vessel at 10-15 psi. After 90 minutes the reaction mixture was filtered and the solvent removed in vacuo to yield an oil. The oil was added dropwise onto diethyl ether yielding a white solid which was collected by filtration and then recrystallised from ethyl acetate/hexane to yield the title compound as a white solid (770 mg).
