49 parts of 3,7-dichloro-8-chloromethylquinoline (Example 1), 13 parts of potassium cyanide and 0.1 part of potassium iodide in 300 parts of dimethylformamide were heated at 150° C. for 4 hours. Water was added to the reaction solution and the precipitated product was filtered off with suction and recrystallized from methylglycol. 32 parts of 3,7-dichloro-8-cyanomethylquinoline of melting point 152° C. were obtained. The yield corresponds to 67% of theory.
