Reaction Steps

A solution of 3 g (10.5 mmol) of 7-benzyloxy-2-methyl-quinolin-4-ol, product of example 1 c), dissolved in 270 ml of MeOH was treated with 1 g of palladium on charcoal (10%) and then hydrogenated at RT for 1 h until HPLC analysis indicated the completion of the reaction. The catalyst was filtered off, washed with MeOH, and the solution was concentrated in vacuo. The residue was triturated with ether, collected by filtration and dried in a high vacuum to give 2.05 g (98.6%) 2-methyl-quinoline-4,7-diol as an off-white solid. ISP mass spectrum, m/e: 176.2 (M+1 calculated for C10H9NO2: 176).
