Reaction Steps

Trifluoromethane sulfonic acid (0.52 mL) were added while cooling with ice to a dichloroethane (0.58 mL) solution of an about 4:7 mixture of 1-fluoro-(2-methylpropen-1-yl)benzene and 1-fluoro-(2-methylpropen-2-yl)benzene (87.3 mg, 0.58 mmol) and quinoline-3-carbonitrile (89.6 mg, 0.58 mmol), and after stirring for 18 hours at room temperature, the solution was poured into water followed by extraction with ethyl acetate and applying the resulting residue to chromatography to obtain 82.2 mg of the target compound (yield: 47%).
