Procedure

4-(Bis-ethoxycarbonyl methyl)-quinoline (5.05 g, 17.6 mmol), NaCl (2.06 g, 35.2 mmol), and H2O (0.63 mL, 35 mmol) were combined with DMSO (22 mL) in a round-bottom flask fitted with a reflux condenser. The heterogeneous mixture was stirred and heated to 160° C. for 90 minutes. TLC analysis (silca, 20% EtOAc-hexanes) indicated complete consumption of the starting material. The reaction was allowed to cool to room temperature and then was diluted with H2O. The dilution was extracted three times with EtOAc. The organic extracts were combined, washed with brine solution, dried over Na2SO4, filtered through celite, and concentrated. Purification by gradient elution chromatography (SiO2, 20% EtOAc-hexanes to 30% EtOAc-hexanes) gave 4-(ethoxycarbonyl methyl)-quinoline (1.81 g, 8.40 mmol) in 48% yield.
