Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a mixture of 4-hydroxy-2-(3-methoxycarbonyl-phenyl)-3,3-dimethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-quinoline-6-carboxylic acid ethyl ester (13 g, 34 mmol) and triethylsilane (20 mL) at 25° C. was added trifluoroacetic acid (10 mL) dropwise. The resulting mixture was stirred at 25° C. for 2 h. Then the reaction mixture was concentrated in vacuo and the residue was extracted with ethyl acetate (2×200 mL), washed with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution (2×100 mL), dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was triturated with methanol. The resulting precipitate was collected, dried in vacuo to afford 2-(3-methoxycarbonyl-phenyl)-3,3-dimethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-quinoline-6-carboxylic acid ethyl ester (3.16 g, 25%) as a white solid: LC/MS m/e calcd for C22H25NO4 (M+H)+: 368.45, observed: 368.1.
