Procedure

To N-(3-chloro-2-fluorobenzyl)-2,2-diethoxyacetimidamide (0.97 g, 3.36 mmol) was added sulfuric acid (4 mL, 75 mmol). The reaction was heated to 40° C. for 28 hours. The reaction was cooled to room temperature and quenched with aq. sodium hydroxide (˜15 M) until the reaction mixture was ˜pH 7. The crude product was extracted with ethyl acetate (2×50 mL) and the organics were dried with MgSO4, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. The crude product was purified by chromatography (Biotage: 100% ethyl acetate to 90/10% ethyl acetate/MeOH) to yield 7-chloro-8-fluoroisoquinolin-3-amine (0.58 g, 2.95 mmol, 88% yield) as a powder. 1H NMR (500 MHz, DMSO-d6) d ppm 8.97 (s, 1H), 7.47-7.57 (m, 1H), 7.38-7.45 (m, 1H), 6.67 (s, 1H), 6.33 (s, 2H). MS (LC/MS) R.T.=1.18; [M+H]+=196.95.
