Procedure
4-Hydroxy-8-methoxy-2-trifluoromethylquinoline (18.77 g) is dissolved in 450 mL 8:1 CH2Cl2:DMF. POCl3 (50 mL) is added dropwise and the reaction is allowed to stir overnight. The reaction is then poured into 500 mL ice/H2O and the aqueous is extracted 2× with CH2Cl2. The organic portions are combined, washed 1× with brine, dried over MgSO4, and evaporated. The resulting oil crystallizes upon standing. The solid is recrystallized from 95% EtOH. A second crop of crystals could be obtained by concentrating down the EtOH filtrate. The total yield of product is 15.36 g.
