Ammonium Hydroxide → 7-Methoxy-2,6-dimethylquinoline

참여 물질

반응 단계

To 3-methoxy-4-methylaniline (1.0 g, 7.29 mmol) in refluxing in 6N HCl (50 mL) was added dropwise (E)-but-2-enal (1.02 g, 14.6 mmol). The reaction was heated to reflux for 2 hours then cooled down and neutralized with NH4OH. The organic phase was extracted with DCM and the combined organic phases dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure to leave a dark residue. The residue was purified by reverse phase chromatography (SP4, 25M, eluting with a gradient of water/ACN 100:0 to 0:100, 20 column volumes) to yield 7-methoxy-2,6-dimethylquinoline (580 mg, 29.7% yield) as a beige solid.
