Reaction Steps

In a microwave vessel, methyl 4-chlorothiazolo[4,5-c]quinoline-7-carboxylate (1.0 eq, 23 mg, 0.084 mmol) and aniline (13 eq, 0.1 ml, 1.1 mmol) were mixed in NMP (0.1 ml). The mixture was heated in a microwave oven at 120° C. for 10 min. The intermediate ester was purified by preparative HPLC and isolated as a solid after genevac evaporation. The solid was stirred in a (1:1:1, v:v:v) mixture of THF, MeOH and water (0.6 ml) with LiOH (41 mg) at room temperature for 2 hours. HCl and water were added, the organic solvents were evaporated and the solution allowed resting for 2 hours. The precipitate that slowly formed was filtered and dried to afford 4-(phenylamino)thiazolo[4,5-c]quinoline-7-carboxylic acid as a solid (8% yield over 2 steps). LCMS (ES): >95% pure, m/z 322 [M+1]+.
