Procedure

A suspension of 3-bromo-quinolin-6-ylamine (9.0 g, 40.3 mmol, 1.0 eq), sodium methoxide (10.9 g, 201.7 mmol, 5.0 eq) and copper powder (7.7 g, 121.0 mmol, 3.0 eq) in methanol (240 mL) is heated at 135° C. for 15 hours. The reaction mixture is then filtered and the filtrate is concentrated to give a yellow residue that is purified by column chromatography (silica gel, eluent: petroleum ether:ethyl acetate:triethylamine, 2:1:0.05, v/v/v) to afford 3-methoxy-quinolin-6-ylamine as a yellow solid (4.2 g, 59% yield).
