Abstract
2,6-Dimethyl-1,2-dihydroquinoline has been isolated as an intermediate in the Doebner-Miller synthesis of 2,6-dimethylquinoline. Dihydroquinolines may be efficiently prepared by the acid catalysed elimination of water from a 4-hydroxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline. The analogous 4-phenylamino derivatives also undergo facile elimination of the benzylic amino group under similar conditions.
