Reaction Steps

Titanium tetrachloride (TiCl4)(288 mg) was added at 0° C. to a solution of ethyl 4-(3,4-diisopropoxyphenyl)-6,7-dimethoxy-2-(1,2,4-triazol-1-ylmethyl)quinoline-3-carboxylate (116.0 mg) in dichloromethane (2.5 ml), and the mixture was stirred at the same temperature for 6 hours. The reaction mixture was poured into water and extracted with chloroform. The chloroform layer was washed with a saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution and water, and dried over magnesium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated. The residual oil was subjected to column chromatography on silica gel. The fractions eluted with ethyl acetate/chloroform (7/3, v/v) gave ethyl 4-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-6,7-dimethoxy-2-(1,2,4-triazol-1-ylmethyl)quinoline-3-carboxylate (20.0 mg, 21%). mp. 122°-124° C.
