Reaktionsschritte

6-Fluoro-3-methyl-quinoline (Intermediate 28) (48.0 mg, 0.298 mmol) was dissolved in acetic acid (1 mL) and 30% aqueous H2O2 (0.040 mL, 0.396 mmol) was added. This was stirred at 80° C. for 16 h before cooling. A few mLs of a 10% aq. solution of Na2SO3 was added followed by a spatula tip of sodium iodide. This was stirred for 10 min before partitioning between ethyl acetate and sat. NaHCO3. The separated aqueous layer was extracted with ethyl acetate and the combined organics dried over MgSO4. Purification by silica gel flash chromatography (methanol/ethyl acetate) gave 6-fluoro-3-methyl-quinoline 1-oxide (29.4 mg) as a white solid. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 8.72 (dd, J=9.4, 5.3 Hz, 1 H) 8.38 (s, 1 H) 7.36-7.50 (m, 3 H) 2.46 (s, 3 H); MS (M+1): 178.1.
