Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

In a dry box, to the microwave test tube (20 ml volume) was added the 6-bromoisoquinolin-3-amine (1.0 g, 4.5 mmol) and the NaOMe (242.0 mg, 4.5 mmol) in 10 ml of DMSO. The microwave test tube was capped and moved from the dry box. The test tube was place into Microwave station to heat at 150° C. for 30 min. The crude residue was purified by a silica gel column to give 420 mg (yield 53.8%). 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) ppm 2.44 (s, 3H), 7.94-8.11 (m, 2H), 8.17 (d, J=8.56 Hz, 2H), 8.82 (s, 1H). MS m/z, (APCI); 175.1 ([M+H]+).
