Reaction Steps

3-Butyryl-4-chloro-8-methoxyquinoline (2.64 g, 10 mmol) was dissolved in I,4-dioxan (10 ml), 2-aminobenzyl alcohol (1.85 g, I5 mmol) added, and the mixture heated to reflux for 5 minutes. The dioxan was evaporated, water added, and the product extracted into dichloromethane. Chromatography (silica gel, ethyl acetate) and recrystallisation from ethyl acetate gave 3-butyryl-4-(2-(hydroxymethyl)phenylamino)-8-methoxyquinoline (1.86 g, 53%), m.p. 159°-161°.
