Reaction Steps

To a solution of 8-(benzyloxy)-2-methoxyquinoline (2.2 g, 8.3 mmol) in EtOH (40 mL) was added Pd/C (230 mg). The mixture was stirred at 25° C. for 16 h under an atmosphere of H2. The mixture was filtered, and the filtrate was evaporated to give the desired compound (1.2 g, 83%). 1HNMR (CDCl3, 400 MHz) δ: 7.91 (d, J=8.8 Hz, 1H), 7.52 (br. s., 1H), 7.23-7.15 (m, 2H), 7.07 (dd, J=1.4, 7.2 Hz, 1H), 6.85 (d, J=8.8 Hz, 1H), 3.99 (s, 3H).
