Reaction Steps

Synthesis of ′N-(3-fluoro-4-{[2-(methylamino)-6,7-bis(methyloxy)quinolin-4-yl]oxy}phenyl)-N′-(4-fluorophenyl)cyclopropane-1,1-dicarboxamide. A mixture of 5-[(3,4-dimethoxy-phenylamino)-methylsulfanyl-methylene]-2,2-dimethyl-[1,3]dioxane-4,6-dione (0.50 g, 1.4 mmol), methylamine (2 M in THF, 0.75 mL. 1.5 mmol), HgCl2 (0.38 g, 1.4 mmol) in THF (5 mL) was stirred at room temperature for 30 minutes. The mixture was extracted with DCM and water (3×) and dried with Na2SO4. Concentration in vacuo afforded 5-[(3,4-dimethoxy-phenylamino)-methylamino-methylene]-2,2-dimethyl-[1,3]dioxane-4,6-dione as a yellow solid (0.48 g, 99% yield) and this compound was used without further purification. LCMS: m/z 335 (M−H)−.
