The reaction mixture was stirred for 1 hour at 0° C., allowed to warm to ambient temperature and stirred for a further 1.5 hours. The volatiles were removed by evaporation, the residue was dissolved in ethyl acetate, washed with dilute hydrochloric acid and brine, dried (MgSO4) and the solvent removed by evaporation. The residue was triturated with ether/petroleum ether to give 4-(4-chloro-2-fluoroanilino)-6-methoxy-7-(trifluoromethylsulphonyloxyquinazoline (270 mg, 60%) as a beige solid.
