Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of ethyl 2-((2-oxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinolin-6-yl)oxy)acetate (0.1 g, 0.4 mmol) in dry toluene (2 mL), 2-(4-chlorophenyl)-N′-hydroxyacetimidamide (0.073 g, 0.4 mmol) and potassium carbonate (0.1 g, 8 mmol) were added and heated to 110° C. in a microwave oven for 30 min. Solvent was removed under vacuum. Water (5 mL) was added to the residue, and the solid which formed was filtered, dried, and recrystallized using a mixture of ACN/Ethanol to afford 6-((3-(4-chlorobenzyl)-1,2,4-oxadiazol-5-yl)methoxy)-3,4-dihydroquinolin-2(1H)-one as an off-white solid (40 mg, 27%). 1H NMR: 400 MHZ, DMSO-d6: δ 2.40 (t, J=7.20 Hz, 2H), 2.82 (t, J=7.60 Hz, 2H), 4.14 (s, 2H), 5.39 (s, 2H), 6.78-6.83 (m, 2H), 6.89 (d, J=2.40 Hz, 1H), 7.33 (d, J=8.40 Hz, 2H), 7.40 (d, J=8.40 Hz, 2H), 9.95 (s, 1H). LCMS: RT 1.85 min. LCMS (ES-API), m/z 370.0 (M+H).
