Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 1.0 g of 4-chloro-6,7-dimethoxy-3-quinolinecarbonitrile, 0.98 g of 3-aminobenzyl alcohol, 0.32 ml of pyridine, and 12 ml of ethoxyethanol was stirred, under nitrogen, at reflux temperature for 3 h. The mixture was cooled and partitioned with dichloromethane and aqueous sodium bicarbonate. The organic layer was washed with water, dried and evaporated. The residue was washed with hot methanol to give 1.16 g of 4-[(3-(hydroxymethyl)phenyl)amino]-6,7-dimethoxy-3-quinolinecarbonitrile as a solid, mp 250-255° C.
