Reaction Steps

A solution of the compound of Example 69, 1-[2-(2-aminoethoxy)ethyl]-2-(ethoxymethyl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]quinolin-4-amine (0.98 g, 2.98 mmol) in 20 mL CH2Cl2 was treated with triethylamine (1.04, 7.45 mmol) and chilled in an ice water bath. With vigorous stirring, the solution was treated dropwise with benzoyl chloride (0.363 mL, 3.13 mmol). After 18 h, the reaction was treated with 25 mL water and 25 mL CH2Cl2 and the layers were separated. The organic portion was washed with 1% Na2CO3 solution, water, brine, dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated to yield a yellow foam. Purification by column chromatography (SiO2, 95:5:0.5 CHCl3:MeOH:NH4OH) followed by recrystallization from CH2Cl2/hexanes gave 422 mg of N-(2-{2-[4-amino-2-(ethoxymethyl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]quinolin-1-yl]ethoxy}ethyl)benzamide as a light yellow powder.
