2-Ethoxy-1-(ethoxycarbonyl)-1,2-dihydroquinoline → HCID 69827563, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of (3aS,4S,6R,6aR)-6-(6-isopropylamino-purin-9-yl)-2,2-dimethyl-tetrahydro-furo[3,4-d][1,3]dioxole-4-carboxylic acid (4.82 g) and 2-ethoxy-N-ethoxycarbonyl-1,2-dihydroquinoline (EEDQ, 3.36 g) in methanol (150 ml) was heated under reflux for 60 h. After cooling to room temperature, the solution was concentrated in vacuo and the resulting residue partitioned between ethyl acetate (100 ml) and citric acid solution (0.5M, 75 ml). The aqueous layer was extracted with ethyl acetate (4×25 ml) and the combined organic extracts were washed with water (50 ml) and brine (75 ml), dried (MgSO4), filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The resulting residue was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel, eluting with ethyl acetate: cyclohexane (1:1) to afford the title compound as a white solid (3.76 g).
