Iodo benzene diacetate → 3-Quinolin-6-ylbutanal

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 3-quinolin-6-ylbutan-1-ol (0.060 g, 0.30 mmol) in methylene chloride (3.0 mL) was added 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-piperidinyloxy free radical (0.005 g, 0.03 mmol) and iodobenzene diacetate (0.10 g, 0.33 mmol). The reaction was stirred overnight at RT. The mixture was purified by chromatography on silica gel with EtOAc in hexanes (0-40%) to afford the desired product (0.050 g, 84%). LCMS: (M+H)=200.0.
