Procedure

1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline (1.7 g, 12.8 mmol) was dissolved in acetonitrile (25 mL) and cooled to 0° C. N-Bromosuccinimide (2.16 g, 12.2 mmol) was added in 4 portions over 30 minutes and the mixture was stirred for 3 hours. The mixture was diluted with ether and washed with sodium bisulfite, water, brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and concentrated. Purification via Isco chromatography (the Redisep® column, silica, gradient 5%-30% ethyl acetate in hexane) afforded 6-bromo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline (1.5 g). MS (ES) m/z 211.8; HPLC purity 100.0% at 210-370 nm, 10.9 min.; the Xterra® RP18 column, 3.5μ, 150×4.6 mm column, 1.2 mL/min, 85/15-5/95 (Ammonium formate buffer pH=3.5 acetonitrile+MeOH) for 10 minutes, hold 4 minutes.
