Reaction Steps

A stirred mixture of (5-iodo-quinolin-2-yl)-(5-methyl-furan-2-ylmethyl)-amine (example 50, step A) (500 mg, 1.37 mmol), zinc cyanide (177 mg, 1.5 mmol) and tetrakis-(triphenylphosphine)-palladium (159 mg, 0.14 mmol) in dimethylformamide (5 ml) was heated at 160° C. for 15 min in a microwave reactor. The reaction mixture was poured into water (15 ml) and extracted with ethyl acetate (2×10 ml). The combined organic layers were washed with brine (10 ml), dried (MgSO4) and evaporated. The crude product was purified by flash chromatography (ethyl acetate/ heptane) on silica gel to yield 2-[(5-methyl-furan-2-ylmethyl)-amino]-quinoline-5-carbonitrile as light brown solid (346 mg, 91%). M.p. 102° C.; MS (ISN): m/e=262.0 (M−H−).
