Procedure
2-Chloromethyl-1 (2-methylpropyl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]quinolin-4-amine hydrochloride (2.5 g; 0.0077 mol, Example 10) was suspended in N-methylpyrrolidone (15 mL). A solution of lithium azide (2.3 g) in water (45 mL) was added to the suspension. The resulting mixture was heated on the steam bath for 2 hr and then diluted with water (about 45 mL). The tan solid was washed with water and dried to yield 1.4 g (60.9%) of crude product. The solid was recrystallized from ethanol to give a pure product m.p. 174-178° C. Analysis: C, 61.0; H, 5.8; N, 33.2. Found: C, 60.9; H, 5.6; N, 32.6.
