Reaction Steps

To a solution of (5-ethoxyquinolin-3-yl)methanol MDE 32076 (40 mg, 197 μmol) in dry CH2Cl2 (10 mL) at 0° C. under N2 in a 25 mL round-bottomed flask equipped with a magnetic stirrer was added dropwise SOCl2 (0.30 mL, 4.13 mmol) and the mixture was stirred for 30 min at 0° C. then for 2 h at RT. The volatiles were then removed at 40° C. under vacuum and the residue was taken up in CH2Cl2 (20 mL) before concentration back to dryness at 40° C. under vacuum (done 3 times) to give 3-(chloromethyl)-5-ethoxyquinoline hydrochloride CCH 29192 as a yellow solid (51 mg, 100% yield).
