Participants

Reaction Steps

1-[2-(6,7-Dimethoxy-quinolin-4-yloxy)-5-hydroxy-phenyl]-ethanone (compound 176) (54 mg) was dissolved in N,N-dimethylformamide (2 ml) to prepare a solution. Butyl iodide (88 mg) and potassium carbonate (110 mg) were added to the solution, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 3 hr. The solvent was removed by distillation under the reduced pressure, water was then added to the residue, and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The ethyl acetate layer was then washed with water and was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvent was removed by distillation under the reduced pressure, and the residue was purified by thin layer chromatography using acetone-hexane to give the title compound (41 mg, yield 65%).
