Reaction Steps

2.1 g (15.4 mmol) of K2CO3 and 760 μl (10.3 mmol) of ethanethiol were added in succession to a solution of 2.1 g (5.1 mmol) of 2-(2-chloro-4-methylquinolin-3-yl)isoindoline-1,3-dione in DMF (36 ml). The mixture was then heated for 16 h at 60° C. A further 2.1 g (15.4 mmol) of K2CO3 and 760 μl (10.3 mmol) of ethanethiol were then added, and the mixture was again heated for 16 h at 50° C. After cooling to RT, the mixture was diluted with water and extracted twice with EA. The combined organic phases were washed with brine, dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. There were obtained as residue 1.7 g (4.0 mmol, 78%) of 2-(2-(ethylthio)-4-methylquinolin-3-yl)isoindoline-1,3-dione, which was reacted further without additional purification.
