Procedure

7-Bromo-4-chloro-3-nitroquinoline (40 g) was dissolved in dichloromethane (1.4 L) and triethylamine (23.3 mL). 3-Isopropoxypropylamine (19.3 mL) was added dropwise. After 48 hours, the reaction mixture was washed successively with water and saturated aqueous sodium chloride. The organic fraction was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. (7-Bromo-3-nitroquinolin-4-yl)-(3-isopropoxypropyl)amine was isolated as a tan solid (51.2 g).
