Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A thick walled glass reaction vessel was charged with anhydrous DMF (2 mL), palladium (II) Acetate (0.01 equivalents (eq)), tri-o-tolylphosphine (0.02 eq) and triethylamine (3 eq). To this orange solution was added a solution of 1-[4-amino-7-bromo-2-(ethoxymethyl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]quinolin-1-yl]-2-methylpropan-2-ol in 50 mL anhydrous DMF followed by the addition of methyl acrylate (1.0 eq). The reaction mixture was purged with nitrogen, sealed and heated at 120° C. overnight, and slowly cooled to room temperature. The reaction mixture was concentrated to dryness and then slurried in water (50 mL). Saturated potassium carbonate solution (25 mL) was added. The mixture was extracted with dichloromethane (4×50 mL). The combined extracts were concentrated under reduced pressure and purified by chromatography using a HORIZON HPFC system (silica cartridge, eluting with 0-25% CMA in chloroform) to provide Methyl(2E)-3-[4-amino-2-(ethoxymethyl)-1-(2-hydroxy-2-methylpropyl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]quinolin-7-yl]prop-2-enoate as a white solid.
