Triethylamine → 1-Acetyl-4-[(benzoxazol-5-yl)imino]-2-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline

Participants

Reaction Steps

[Step 1] 177 mg of 1-acetyl-4-oxo-2-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline and 77 mg of 5-aminobenzoxazole were dissolved in 2 mL of methylene chloride, and 0.32 mL of triethylamine and 0.57 mL of titanium tetrachloride (1.0 M dichloromethane solution) were added to the solution under ice cooling. The mixture was stirred for 16 hours at room temperature. After completion of the reaction, the reaction liquid was filtered through Celite, and was concentrated under reduced pressure. Thus, a crude product of 1-acetyl-4-[(benzoxazol-5-yl)imino]-2-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline was obtained as a pale brown solid.
