Procedure

To a stirred suspension of 1 g of 7-benzyloxy-4-hydroxy-6-methoxy-quinoline-3-carbonitrile in 10 ml of methylene chloride was added 5 ml of oxalyl chloride (2M in methylene chloride), and 2 drops of N,N-dimethylformamide. The mixture was refluxed for 20 min and to it was slowly added aqueous sodium bicarbonate until the bubbling ceased. Following separation of the layers, the organic layer was evaporated to a small volume, then passed through a plug of magnesol. Elution with 50 ml methylene chloride, followed by evaporation provided 0.6 g of 7-benzyloxy-4-chloro-6-methoxy-quinoline-3-carbonitrile as a pale yellow solid, mp 282-284° C.; mass spectrum (electrospray, m/e) M+H 325.
