2-Pyridinemethanamine → N-{4-[(6,7-Dimethoxy-4-quinolyl)oxy]-2-fluorophenyl}-N'-(2-pyridylmethyl)urea

Participants

Reaction Steps

4-[(6,7-Dimethoxy-4-quinolyl)oxy]-2-fluoroaniline (100 mg) was dissolved in toluene (5 ml) and triethylamine (1 ml). A solution of triphosgene (104 mg) in dichloromethane was then added to the solution, and the mixture was refluxed for 5 min. Next, 2-(aminomethyl)pyridine (40 μl) was added thereto, and the mixture was heated under reflux for 2 hr. A saturated aqueous sodium hydrogencarbonate solution (1 ml) and chloroform (2 ml) were added to the reaction solution. The mixture was supported on diatomaceous earth, followed by extraction with chloroform. The solvent was removed by distillation under the reduced pressure. The residue was purified by chromatography on silica gel by development with chloroform/methanol (8/1) to give 126 mg (yield 88%) of the title compound.
