To a solution of methyl quinoline-6-carboxylate (14 g, 74.8 mmol) in THF (80 mL), was added LiAlH4 (2.84 g, 74.8 mmol) in portions. Then water (2.84 mL) and NaOH (10%, 4.26 mL) was added dropwise to quench excess reducing agent. After stirring for additional 20 min, ether was added, and the resulting mixture was filtered through celite. The filtrate was concentrated to a residue, which was purified by silica gel with hexanes:EtOAc to afford quinolin-6-ylmethanol (7.6 g) in 64% yield.
