Reaction Steps

A solution of 7-[2-acetoxy-3-(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl) propoxy]-6-methoxyquinazolin-4-one (930 mg, 2.4 mmol) in thionyl chloride (10 ml) containing DMF (150 μl) was heated at 80° C. for 5 hours. The volatiles were removed under vacuum and the residue azeotroped with toluene. The solid was partitioned between methylene chloride and water and the pH of the aqueous layer was adjusted to 7 with solid sodium bicarbonate. The organic layer was separated, washed with brine, dried (MgSO4) and evaporated. The residue was purified by column chromatography eluting with methylene chloride/methanol saturated with ammonia (95/5). The fractions containing the expected product were combined and the volatiles were removed under vacuum to give 7-[2-acetoxy-3-(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl)propoxy]-6-methoxy-4-chloroquinazoline (859 mg, 88%).
