Reaktionsschritte

2-Chloro-4-methoxyquinoline (prepared as for 2-chloro-4-ethoxyquinoline but using methanol as solvent; 3.873 g, 20 mmol) and 1,4-diaminobutane (12.3 g, 140 mmol) were heated at 60° C. for 50 h. The solution was then reduced in volume in vacuo, and diluted with dichloromethane. The solid was filtered off and washed with dichloromethane. The filtrate was evaporated to dryness and purified by flash chromatography, eluting with 0-10% ‘10% ammonia in methanol’ in dichloromethane, to give 2-(4-aminobut-1-ylamino)-4-methoxyquinoline as a white solid (2.29 g, 47%). This material (2.142 g, 8.73 mmol) in concentrated hydrochloric acid (80 ml) was gently refluxed for 15 h, and then evaporated to dryness to give the title compound as a white foam (2.65 g, 99%); δH (CD3OD) 1.8-1.9 (4H, m), 2.95-3.05 (2H, m), 3.5-3.6 (2H, m), 6.36 (1H, s), 7.46 (1H, t), 7.7-7.9 (2H, m), 8.45(1H, d): MS (ES+) 232 (100%, MH+).
