Abstract: | The reaction of formaldehyde on a hydrochloric acid solution of 8-hydroxyquinoline, in the presence of hydrochloric acid gas, gave a chloromethyl derivative which is probably 7-chloromethyl-8-hydroxyquinoline hydrochloride. This compound is readily converted into the 7-hydroxymethyl derivative in alkaline solution. The 7-chloromethyl compound has been investigated as an analytical reagent for metal ions in acid solutions. |
