Potassium Carbonate → 7-chloro-3-(4-methoxycarbonyl-2-oxo-2H-pyridin-1-ylmethyl)-4-oxo-1-phenyl-1,4-dihydro-quinoline-2-carboxylic acid methyl ester

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 3-bromomethyl-7-chloro-4-oxo-1-phenyl-1,4-dihydro-quinoline-2-carboxylic acid methyl ester (550 mg, 1.35 mmol), methyl-2-hydroxyisonicotinate (290 mg, 1.89 mmol) and potassium carbonate (280 mg, 2.03 mmol) in N,N-dimethylformamide (15 mL) was stirred at 25° C. overnight. At this time, the reaction was concentrated in vacuo. Flash chromatography (ISCO column, 40% ethyl acetate/hexanes) afforded 7-chloro-3-(4-methoxycarbonyl-2-oxo-2H-pyridin-1-ylmethyl)-4-oxo-1-phenyl-1,4-dihydro-quinoline-2-carboxylic acid methyl ester (300 mg, 46%) as a white solid. MS m/e calcd for C25H19ClN2O6 [(M+H)+] 479.0. Found 479.0.
