Procedure

Quinoline (19.37 g, 150 mmol) was dissolved in anhydrous diethyl ether (500 ml) and cooled to 0° C. under inert atmosphere. DIBAL, 1.5 M in toluene (100 ml, 150 mmol) was added dropwise over 2 hrs and the reaction mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 30 min. Acetic anhydride (500 ml) was added dropwise over 30 min and the reaction mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 30 min. H2O was added cautiously. The reaction mixture was extracted with diethyl ether and concentrated to give N-acetyl-1,2-dihydroquinoline (11.5 g, 44%).
