Procedure
A solution of 2-bromomethyl-5-methyl-2,3,6,7-tetrahydrofuro-[2,3-f]quinoline-7-one (2.942 g) in dimethylformamide (120 ml) was combined with aqueous 15% sodium thiomethoxide (9.4 ml), and stirred at room temperature for 1 hour. The solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure. Water was added to the residue, and extracted with chloroform. The chloroform extract was washed with diluted hydrochloric acid, diluted caustic soda and water in this order, and dried. The resultant material was crystallized from tetrahydrofuran to obtain 2.355 g of the title compound as colorless prisms (mp. 203°-206° C.) (yield: 90.1%).
