Reaction Steps

20 mg (0.95 mmol) sodium were added to methanol (6 ml) at RT. Once the sodium had completely dissolved, a solution of 210 mg (0.47 mmol) 4-chloro-2-ethylsulfanyl-N-[(3-fluorophenyl)-methyl]-7-(trifluoromethyl)-quinoline-3-carboxamide (example 122) in MeOH (2 ml) was added at RT. The mixture was then heated for 30 min at 60° C. Then the mixture was concentrated to small volume under vacuum and the residue was taken up with water and extracted with EE. The organic phase was washed with water and brine, dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated to small volume under vacuum. Column chromatography (hexane/EE 9:1) of the residue yielded 80 mg (0.18 mmol, 38%) 2-ethylsulfanyl-N-[(3-fluorophenyl)-methyl]-4-methoxy-7-(trifluoromethyl)-quinoline-3-carboxamide. MS: m/z 439.1 [M+H]+.
