Reaktionsschritte

A round bottom flask was charged with a magnetic stir bar, 1-(2-chloroethyl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]quinolin-4-amine (2.0 g, 8.11 mmol), sodium benzenethiolate (1.79 g, 12.16 mmol), and anhydrous dimethyl sulfoxide (40 mL) under a nitrogen atmosphere. The reaction mixture was heated to 100° C. to give a homogeneous solution that was maintained at 100° C. for 30 minutes at which time the starting material was completely consumed. The hot solution was poured into rapidly stirred water (300 mL) which caused a solid to precipitate out of solution. The solid was collected by filtration to afford an off-white solid. The material was triturated with acetonitrile and collected by filtration to give 1-[2-(phenylthio)ethyl]-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]quinolin-4-amine (2.08 g, 6.49 mmol) as an off-white powder, m. p. 233-235° C.
