Triphenylphosphine → 4-(4-Chloro-2-fluoroanilino)-6-methoxy-7-(2-(6-methyl-2-pyridyl)ethoxy)quinazoline hydrochloride

Participants

Reaction Steps

Diethyl azodicarboxylate (236 μl, 1.5 mmol) was added dropwise to a suspension of 4-(4-chloro-2-fluoroanilino)-7-hydroxy-6-methoxyquinazoline (160 mg, 0.5 mmol), (prepared as described for the starting material in Example 24), triphenylphosphine (393 mg, 115 mmol) and 2-(6-methyl-2-pyridyl)ethanol (96 mg, 0.7 mmol), (J. Chem. Soc. A, 1971, 388), in methylene chloride (6 ml) and the mixture stirred for 16 hours at ambient temperature. The mixture was poured directly on to a silica column and eluted with methylene chloride/methanol (95/5). The purified solid was dissolved in methylene chloride/methanol and ethereal hydrogen chloride (1.5 ml of a 4.5M solution) was added. The mixture was diluted with ether and the resulting precipitate was collected by filtration, washed with ether and dried under vacuum to give 4-(4-chloro-2-fluoroanilino)-6-methoxy-7-(2-(6-methyl-2-pyridyl)ethoxy)quinazoline hydrochloride (97 mg, 34%).
