Procedure
Lithium aluminum hydride (262 mg, 6.90 mmol) was suspended in tetrahydrofuran (20 mL) then cooled to −78° C. A solution of methyl 6,7-dimethoxyquinoline-4-carboxylate (1.55 g, 6.27 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (20 mL) was added dropwise. The reaction mixture was stirred at −78° C. for 4 hours. The reaction was quenched with ethyl acetate (6 mL) then added sodium sulfate decahydrate and warmed the mixture to room temperature, stirring overnight. The mixture was filtered and the filtrate was concentrated under vacuum. The remaining solid was triturated with dichloromethane, filtered and dried under high vacuum to give 1.2 g of (6,7-dimethoxyquinoline-4-yl)methanol as a light yellow solid. MS (ESI, pos. ion) m/z: 220.0 (M+1).
