Reaction Steps

1H-Quinolin-4-one (2.90 g, 20 mmol, 1 equiv) in 5 mL of DMF was treated with 1.12 g of KOH (2 equiv) and 5.30 g of iodine (1.05 equiv) for 2 hours. The reaction was quenched by slow addition of saturated aqueous solution of Na2S2O3. Filtration gave 3-iodo-1H-quinolin-4-one as an off-white solid.
