Reaction Steps

4-Chloroquinaldine (1.5 g, 5 mmol) was mixed with N,N′-dimethylethylenediamine (2.45 ml, 25 mmol) and 1-methoxy-2-propanol (8 ml) and stirred at 110° C. overnight. The mixture was purified by column chromatography (pre-packed silica column, gradient of heptane/ethyl acetate each containing 1% triethylamine). 0.4 g were obtained (1.75 mmol; 35%). MS (APCI) m/z=230.0 [M+H]+.
