1-Cyclopropyl-6,7,8-trifluoro-4-oxo-1,4-dihydroquinoline-3-carboxylic acid → 7-[2-(t-Butoxycarbonyl)-8-(methoxyimino)-2,6-diazaspiro[3,4]oct-6-yl]-1-cyclopropyl-6,8-difluoro-4-oxo-1,4-dihydro-3-quinolinecarboxylic acid

Participants

Reaction Steps

1-cyclopropyl-6,7,8-trifluoro-4-oxo-1,4-dihydro-3-quinolinecarboxylic acid and 320 mg of t-butyl 8-(methoxyimino)-2,6-diazaspiro[3,4]octane-2-carboxylate were added to 10 ml of acetonitrile and the resulting mixture was refluxed for 7 hours and then cooled to room temperature. The precipitated solid was filtered and dried to give 120 mg of the titled compound (yield: 55.5%).
