Procedure

4-Bromo-6-methoxy-quinoline-3-carboxylic acid ethyl ester (41 g, 0.132 mole), partially dissolved in THF (600 mL), was treated dropwise with aqueous 2 M sodium hydroxide (198.4 mL, 0.396 mole). After 24 hr, the reaction was complete by TLC (2% MeOH/CH2Cl2). The mixture was neutralized with 5 M HCl then the THF was removed in vacuo. The residue was dissolved in water and acidified with 5 M HCl. The solid product was collected under suction, washed well with water, and dried in vacuo to give the title compound (34 g, 91%) as a white solid: MS (ES) m/e 282/284 (M+H)+.
