Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2,4-dichloro-7-methoxyquinoline (0.1 g, 0.43 mmol) in 1,4-Dioxane (10 ml) was added pyrrolidine (0.3 g, 0.43 mmol) followed by DIPEA (0.11 g, 0.87 mmol) at room temperature. The reaction mass was heated at 140° C. for 18 h. The reaction mass was diluted with water and extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined organic layer was dried over anhydrous Na2SO4 and evaporated under reduced pressure to get crude compound. The crude compound was purified by silica gel chromatography to get desired compound (50 mg, 43.4%) as white solid. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ ppm 7.86-7.83 (d, J=12 Hz, 1H), 7.06 (s, 1H), 6.88-6.85 (d, J=12 Hz, 1H), 6.67 (s, 1H), 3.91 (s, 3H), 3.58 (t, J=8 Hz, 4H), 2.03 (t, J=6 Hz, 1H); MS: MS m/z 263.1 (M++1).
