β¦ Synopsis
quinoline has been described in the literature.* Our yields and melting points agreed essentially with those reported.
Derivatives of Dimethylquino1ines.-The compounds described in Table I were prepared by refluxing the chloro compound with an excess of the appropriate amine as the solvent. The reflux time was eight to ten hours. The reaction mixture was then poured on ice. The 4-diethylamino-1-methylbutylamino derivative was extracted from the water with ether and was purified by distillation; whereas the solid piperidino, morpholino and l-hydroxy-methylpropylamino derivatives were filtered off and crystallized. Summary 1. 2-Chloro-4,8-dimethylquinoline has been prepared.
- Some derivatives of 2-amino-4,8-dimethylaminoquinoline and 4-amino-3,8-dimethylquinoline are described.
