Reaction Steps

A modification of the method described in Part K of Example 45 was followed using N-{2-[4-amino-7-(6-aminohexyloxy)-2-ethoxymethyl-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]quinolin-1-yl]-1,1-dimethylethyl}acetamide (1.2 g, 2.5 mmol) as the starting material and acetyl chloride (200 μL, 3 mmol) in lieu of methanesulfonic anhydride. Following chromatographic purification, the solid was recrystallized from acetonitrile, and the crystals were dissolved in dichloromethane:methanol, concentrated under reduced pressure, and further dried under high vacuum at 60° C. to provide 0.47 g of N-(2-{7-[6-(acetylamino)hexyloxy]-4-amino-2-ethoxymethyl-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]quinolin-1-yl}-1,1-dimethylethyl)acetamide as a white powder, mp 190-192° C.
