Reaction Steps

A stirred mixture of 2-chloro-quinoline-6-carboxylic acid ethyl ester [CAS-No. 29969-56-0] (236 mg, 1.0 mmol) and commercially available 2-methoxy-benzylamine (412 mg, 3.0 mmol) was heated in a sealed tube for 16 h at 120° C. Purification by flash chromatography on silica gel (ethyl acetate/heptane) and crystallization of each of the two fractions (dichloromethane/hexane) yielded the title compound as a white solid (40 mg, 9%), MS (ISP) 428.3 [(M+H)+]; m.p. 217° C. as well as 2-(2-methoxy-benzylamino)-quinoline-6-carboxylic acid ethyl ester as a white solid (196 mg, 58%), MS (ISP) 337.3 [(M+H)+]; m.p. 108° C.
