Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

N,N-Diisopropylethylamine (0.07 mL; 3 eq) was added to a solution of 2-methyl-5-(1-piperazinyl)-7-fluoro quinoline (0.03 g; 1 eq) and 2-(3-nitrophenyl)ethyl methanesulfonate (D4) (0.033 g; 1.1 eq) in dimethylformamide (1.0 mL). The reaction mixture was heated to 90° C. for 10 hours. The dark solution was cooled to room temperature and concentrated under reduced pressure, diluted with water (3 mL) and brine (1 mL) and extracted into ethyl acetate (3×3 mL). The organic layers were combined, dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure. The crude was purified by flash chromatography on silica, eluting with a gradient from dichloromethane to dichloromethane-MeOH (98:2) affording the title compound in 88% yield (0.04 g).
