Toluene → 4-Chloro-6-methoxy-7-(2-(pyrrolidin-1-yl)ethoxy)quinazoline

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 6methoxy-7-(2-(pyrrolidin-1-yl)ethoxy)-3,4-dihydroquinazolin-4-one (228 mg, 7.9 mmol) in thionyl chloride (5 ml) and DMF (0.2 ml) was heated at reflux for 1 hour. Toluene was added and the volatiles were removed by evaporation. The residue was dissolved in methylene chloride and cooled aqueous sodium hydrogen carbonate solution was added. The organic layer was separated, washed with brine, dried (MgSO4) and the solvent removed by evaporation to give 4-chloro-6-methoxy-7-(2-(pyrrolidin-1-yl)ethoxy)quinazoline (200 mg, 82%).
