Reaction Steps

A mixture of 4-cyano-5,8-dimethyl-6-nitroquinoline (2.54 g, 11.2 mmol), stannous chloride dihydrate (12.6 g, 55.9 mmol) and ethanol (200 mL) is heated at 60° C. for 1.5 hours. The reaction is cooled to room temperature, and water (60 mL) is added. The mixture is basified with 10% aqueous sodium hydroxide solution (70 mL) and subsequently extracted with methylene chloride (3×150 mL). Drying (sodium sulfate) and evaporation provides 6-amino-4-cyano-5,8-dimethylquinoline.
