Reaction Steps

A mixture of 2-(azetidin-3-yl)-3-bromopyridine hydrochloride (4) (221 g, 0.886 mol), 2-chloroquinoline (133.5 g, 0.816 mol, 0.92 eq., Combi-Blocks) and cesium carbonate (866 g, 2.658 mol, 3 eq.) in anhydrous DMF (7 L) was heated to 110° C. and stirred for 16 hrs. After cooling to RT, the mixture was transferred to 50 L separatory funnel and diluted with water (14 L). The precipitated solid was filtered, stirred in water (4 L), filtered and dried to obtain 222 g of 2-(3-(3-bromopyridin-2-yl)azetidin-1-yl)quinoline. Yield: 80% over two steps.
