Procedure

A mixture of 7-benzyloxy-6-cyano-1,4-dihydroquinolin-4-one (3.5 g), thionyl chloride (50 ml) and DMF (10 drops) was heated at reflux for 3 hours. The volatiles were removed by evaporation and the residue was partitioned between water and methylene chloride. A saturated solution of sodium hydrogen carbonate was added until the aqueous phase became alkaline. The aqueous phase was extracted with methylene chloride, the organic phases were combined, washed with water and dried by passing through phase separating paper. Removal of the solvent by evaporation gave a solid which was triturated with ether (50 ml) and collected by filtration. The orange solid obtained was dried in a vacuum oven to give 7-benzyloxy-4-chloro-6-cyanoquinoline (2.28 g, 36% over the last two steps).
