Reaction Steps

Phosphorus oxychloride (0.77 ml, 0.082 mols) was added in one portion to a suspension of 2-cyclopropyl-4-oxo-1,4-dihydro-quinoline-3-carboxylic acid ethyl ester (1.0 g, 0.041 mols) in acetonitrile and the mixture was heated at 75° C. for 90 minutes (becomes a clear solution above 65° C.). The resulting light brown solution was poured into saturated sodium bicarbonate (100 ml); the suspension was extracted with ethyl acetate and the combined organic extracts were dried and concentrated in vacuo to leave 4-Chloro-2-cyclopropyl-quinoline-3-carboxylic acid ethyl ester (1.15 g, 106%) as an off-white solid. Rf (AcOEt)=0.73. Step 3 4-(4-cyclopropyl-3-oxo-3,5-dihydro-pyrazolo[4,3-c]quinolin-2-yl)-benzoic acid
