Procedure

A solution of quinoline (20 ml) in 200 ml of 1,2-dibromoethane was heated under nitrogen at 70° C. for 18 hours. The crystalline solid was filtered, washed with dichloromethane and recrystallized from methanol-ether. Collected 32 g (65 per cent yield) m.p. 205°-207° C. Nmr (D2O) 4.22 (t, 2), 5.63 (t, 2), 7.8 - 8.6 (m, 5), 9.1 - 9.6 (m, 3).
