Participants

Reaction Steps

(E)-Phenyl[4-phenyl-8-(trifluoromethyl)quinolin-3-yl]methanone oxime (Example 37, 0.070 g, 0.18 mmol) was taken into DMF (3 mL). Then NaH (0.014 g, 0.36 mmol) was added and stirred for 20 minutes, followed by addition of iodomethane (0.05 mL, 0.72 mmol) and stirring over the weekend. The reaction was quenched with water and extracted with ether. The combined organics were washed with water and dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated. The resulting material was purified via column chromatography using 5% ethyl acetate in hexane as the eluent to afford 0.063 g (86%) of desired product as a white solid. MS (ESI) m/z 407 ([M+H]+); Anal. Calcd for C24H17F3N2O: C, 70.93; H, 4.22; N, 6.89. Found: C, 70.92; H, 4.19; N, 6.68.
