Reaction Steps

To 10 g of 8-acetoxy-5,6,7,8-tetrahydroquinoline in 30 mL of methanol was added 30 mL of 30% sodium hydroxide in water. The mixture was heated to reflux for 2 min and the methanol was removed in vacuo. The residual organic product was extracted with chloroform. The chloroform extracts were dried over sodium sulfate and evaporation of the solvent gave 8 g of product as an oil, characterized by its NMR.
