Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of N4-(3-bromo-phenyl)-6,7-dimethoxy-quinazoline-4,5-diamine (100 mg, 0.27 mmol) (from Example 6, Step B supra) in formic acid (5 mL) was heated at 110° C. for 2 hours. Aqueous NaOH solution was added to the reaction mixture to a pH 10–12. The solution was diluted with chloroform (100 mL). The organic layer was separated, dried over Na2SO4, and concentrated. This residue was purified by chromatography using EtOAc/Et3N (1:0.04) as eluent to give the desired 3-(3-bromo-phenyl)-8,9-dimethoxy-3H-1,3,4,6-tetraaza-phenalene as a brown solid. (Yield 86 mg, 83%).
