Sodium borohydride → (4-Chloro-2-methoxy-8-methyl-3-(3-(trifluoromethyl)benzyl)quinolin-6-yl)(1-methyl-1H-imidazol-5-yl)methanol

Participants

Reaction Steps

Sodium borohydride (0.016 g, 0.422 mmol) was added in one portion to a suspension of (4-chloro-2-methoxy-8-methyl-3-(3-(trifluoromethyl)benzyl)quinolin-6-yl)(1-methyl-1H-imidazol-5-yl)methanone (0.1 g, 0.211 mmol, Intermediate 15: step d) in MeOH (3 mL). The mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight, then filtered, rinsing the solids with MeOH and H2O. The solid product was dried under reduced pressure to provide the title compound. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ ppm 8.08 (s, 1H), 7.57-7.69 (m, 1H), 7.41-7.53 (m, 4H), 7.30-7.41 (m, 1H), 6.76 (s, 1H), 5.94-6.15 (m, 1H), 4.35 (s, 2H), 4.09 (s, 3H), 3.60 (s, 3H), 2.67 (s, 3H), 2.58 (m, 1H).
