Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of methyl 5-bromo-3-(isopropylamino)-2-methylbenzoate (0.5 g, 1.75 mmol) in acetonitrile (10 mL), Cs2CO3 (1.02 g, 2.63 mmol) and methyl iodide (1.45 g, 3.5 mmol) were added to it. The resulting reaction mixture was stirred at 80° C. for 4 h. Upon completion, the solvent was removed under reduced pressure and residue dissolved in water and extracted with ethyl acetate. Crude material obtained was purified by column chromatography over silica gel affording the desired compound product without further purification (0.39 g)
