Allyltributylstannane → 7-Allyl-4-phenylquinoline-2-carbonitrile

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 7-chloro-4-phenylquinoline-2-carbonitrile (3.3 g, 12.5 mmol) in dioxane (120 mL) was added tetrakistriphenylphosphine (3.6 g, 3.1 mmol) and allyltributyltin (11.5 mL, 38 mmol). The mixture was refluxed for 10 h, concentrated and purified on silica gel (eluting with dichloromethane/hexanes, 3:1) to give the title compound. MS (+ESI): 271 (M+H)+.
