“…2-Ethy 1-iV-methy 1-5,6,7,8-tetrahydroquinolinium Iodide. Freshly distilled 2-ethyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydroquinoline was treated as described for the preparation of 2 with the exception that the iodomethane solution was stirred for 24 h. Light brown crystals were obtained (16.0 g, 52.8 mmol, 80%) after recrystallization: mp 109-110 °C; IR (KBr) 3020, 2932, 1605,1578,1050 cm"1; NMR (200 MHz, CDC13) 7.94 (d, J = 8.3 Hz, Ar-H), 7.57 (d, J = 8.3 Hz, 1 H, Ar-H), 4.15 (s, 3 H, NCH3), 3.14-3.08 (m, 4 H, Ar-CH2), 2.89-2.83 (m, 2 H, Ar-CH2), 2.0-1.8 (m, 2 H, CH2), 1.80-1.75 (m, 2 H, CH2), 1.33 (t, J = 7.3 Hz, 3 H, CH2CH3); 13C NMR (22.5 MHz, CDC13) b 158.8,155.9,145.5,136.9,125.0, 40.1, 29.5, 28.9, 22.4, 20.9, 12.3, 7.0. 4,4a,5,6,7,8-Hexahydro-l-methyl-2(3H)-naphthalenone (6).…”
