Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of 3-nitro-quinolin-4-ol (5 g) in DCM (70 mL) was added DMF (2.3 mL) then thionyl chloride (2.1 mL) and the reaction mixture was refluxed for 3 h. The solution was cooled to 0° C. and 3-{[tert-butyl(dimethyl)silyl]oxy}propan-1-amine (6 g) was added followed by dropwise addition of Et3N (12 mL). The reaction mixture was stirred at rt for 2 h, then partitioned between DCM and saturated NaHCO3 solution. The organic layer was washed with water, dried, and the solvent evaporated under reduced pressure. The residue was triturated with iso-hexane to leave the subtitle compound (8.7 g).
