Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 1-ethyl-4-chloro-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinoline (15.0 g, 0.065 mol), benzylamine (15.6 ml, 0.14 mol) and DMSO (100 ml) is heated at 80° C. overnight. The reaction mixture is poured into ice/water and the gummy solid which formed is collected by filtration. The solid is dissolved in ethyl acetate, dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated. The residual oil is crystallized from ethyl acetate to afford 18 g (92%) of 1-ethyl-N-(phenyl methyl)-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinolin-4-amine, m.p. 130°-132° C.
