To a solution of 4-(4-fluoro-2-methylindol-5-yloxy)-6-methoxy-7-(piperidin-4-ylmethoxy)cinnoline (170 mg, 0.31 mmol), (prepared as described in Example 6), in methylene chloride (6 ml) and methanol (3 ml) was added a solution of sodium acetate (25 mg, 0.31 mmol). Acetic acid (22 ml) and formaldehyde (37%) (50 ml) were added. The mixture was stirred for 5 minutes and triacetate sodium borohydride (100 mg, 0.46 mmol) was added in portions. The mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 1 hour. The volatiles were removed under vacuum and the residue was dissolved in water and the pH was adjusted to 10 with 2N aqueous sodium hydroxide. The mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with brine, dried (MgSO4) and evaporated. The residue was triturated under diethyl ether, filtered, washed with ether and dried under vacuum to give 4-(4-fluoro-2-methylindol-5-yloxy)-6-methoxy-7-(1-methylpiperidin-4-ylmethoxy)cinnoline (75 mg, 43%).
