Procedure

1.65 g (55 mmol) of sodium hydride (80%) were added in portions to a stirred solution of 3.62 g (25 mmol) of 4-chloro-benzenethiol in 36 ml of dry dimethylformamide under nitrogen and cooled in ice. After evolution of hydrogen had ceased, 4.80 g (20 mmol) of 8-chloro-5,6,7,8-tetrahydroquinoline hydrochloride were added and the mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure in a stream of nitrogen below 50° C. and 4N aqueous sodium hydroxide was added. The mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate and the extracts were washed with ice-cold aqueous sodium hydroxide and then with aqueous saturated sodium chloride, dried over MgSO4 and evaporated to dryness under reduced pressure. A solution of the resulting oil in ether was treated with ethereal hydrogen chloride to precipitate 5.13 g (82%) of 8-(4-chlorophenylthio)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydroquinoline hydrochloride as colorless crystals (from ethanol-ether).
