Ammonium Hydroxide → HCID 68537588, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 2-[4-(2-butyl-5-oxido-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]quinolin-1-yl)butoxy]-1H-isoindole-1,3(2H)-dione (8.92 g, 19.5 mmol) in dichloroethane (100 mL) was shaken vigorously until it became homogeneous. With vigorous stirring, ammonium hydroxide (100 mL) andp-toluenesulfonyl chloride (4.45 g, 23.4 mmol) were added sequentially. The reaction was stirred overnight at room temperature. The product was present as a white precipitate, which was isolated by filtration to provide 1.97 g of 1-[4-(aminooxy)butyl]-2-butyl-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]quinolin-4-amine as a white solid.
