Procedure

240 mg (0.75 mmol) of 3,3'-dimethoxy-2,2'-biquinoline are suspended in 15 ml of 30 percent strength HBr in glacial acetic acid. In the course of heating, the educt soon dissolves. After as little as about 1 hour, the first crystals of the hydrobromide precipitate. The reaction solution is constantly refluxed. After 8 hours, another 5 ml of 30 percent strength HBr in glacial acetic acid are added. The reaction is stopped after 24 hours. The reaction mixture is diluted to 100 ml with water. This dissolves the precipitate formed. The aqueous phase is brought to a pH of 11 with solid sodium hydroxy [sic] pellets and extracted with 50 ml of chloroform. The aqueous phase is then brought to a pH of 6 with concentrated hydrochloric acid and extracted with 250 ml of chloroform (5×50 ml). The chloroform phase is dried over CaCl2 and evaporated on a rotary evaporator (beige crude product). The crude product is purified on a column (silica gel/chloroform). Finally, the product is recrystallized from 10 ml of toluene, giving colorless crystals of pure substance.
