methyl 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline-2-carboxylate

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: A solution is prepared of 300 mg (1.32 mmol) of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2-quinolinylcarboxylic acid methyl ester in 20 ml of acetonitrile and, at ambient temperature, 309 mg (1.32 mmol) of 4-(1,1-dimethylethyl)-benzenesulfonyl chloride are added, then 0.29 ml (2.64 mmol) of N-methylmorpholine. The reaction mixture is agitated for 18 hours with solvent reflux and then concentrated under reduced pressure. The evaporation residue is collected in 50 ml of ethyl acetate and washed with a solution of hydrochloric acid 1 N then by a solution of saturated sodium bicarbonate. The organic phase is dried on magnesium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure. The raw product is purified by silica gel chromatography eluting with the help of a methylcyclohexane/ethyl acetate mixture (99/1 then 95/5; v/v). In this way the expected product is obtained in the form of a white solid (yield=22%). reflux concentrated under reduced pressure The evaporation residue is collected in 50 ml of ethyl acetate washed with a solution of hydrochloric acid 1 N The organic phase is dried on magnesium sulfate concentrated under reduced pressure The raw product is purified by silica gel chromatography eluting with the help of a methylcyclohexane/ethyl acetate mixture (99/1

Procedure: To a suspension of LiAlH4 (8.3 g, 0.22 mol) in THF (200 mL) was added dropwise 2-methoxycarbonyltetrahydroquinoline (42 g, 0.22 mol) in THF (200 mL) at 0° C. The mixture was stirred for 3 h at room temperature and refluxed for 0.5 h. The excess reagent was decomposed by addition of aqueous sodium hydroxide in THF. To the mixture was added 1N aqueous NaOH, water, and diethyl ether, successively. The organic layer was separated, washed with brine, dried over magnesium sulfate, and concentrated to give 38.4 g of 2-hydroxymethyltetrahydroquinoline (quant). refluxed for 0.5 h The organic layer was separated washed with brine dried over magnesium sulfate concentrated

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: The mixture of 1.0 g of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline-2-carboxylic acid methyl ester (Ber. 61,2377), 0.87 g of 4-carbomethoxy-2-methylbutanoyl chloride, 1.44 g of powdered potassium carbonate and 20 ml of methylene chloride is stirred at room temperature overnight. It is cooled with ice, and 50 ml of water are added. The organic layer is separated, washed with N-hydrochloric acid and water, dried and evaporated, to yield the 1-(4-carbomethoxy-2-methylbutanoyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline-2-carboxylic acid methyl ester, showing NMR-peaks at 0.85, 1.25, 3.35, 3.65 and 3.75 ppm. are added The organic layer is separated washed with N-hydrochloric acid and water dried evaporated
