N-(6-Fluoro-2-methylquinolin-5-yl)acetamide → N-(6-Fluoro-2-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinolin-5-yl)acetamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 8 g of 6-fluoro-5-acetylamino-quinaldine and 0.2 g of 5% platinum on carbon was dissolved in 80 ml of acetic acid and the solution was subjected to catalytic hydrogenation according to Parr method at a hydrogen pressure of 4 kg/cm2. After a theoretical amount of hydrogen was absorbed the reaction mixture was filtered. The filtrate was then concentrated under reduced pressure to obtain 8 g of 6-fluoro-5-acetylamino-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinaldine as an oily product. Production of this compound was confirmed by NMR spectral analysis and mass spectral analysis.
