1-Methoxy-2-propanol → HCID 70982964, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To 2-methylquinolin-8-ol (1.0 g, 6.28 mmol) in THF (5 mL) was added PPh3 (6.92 g, 26.4 mmol), DEAD (1.58 ml, 10.1 mmol) and 1-methoxypropan-2-ol (0.736 g, 8.17 mmol). The reaction was stirred for 24 hours at ambient temperature and then water was added. The aqueous phase was extracted with DCM and the combined organic phases dried over MgSO4, filtered and purified by reverse chromatography (SP4, 40M, eluting with a gradient of water/ACN 100:0 to 0:100, 20 column volumes) to yield 8-(1-methoxypropan-2-yloxy)-2-methylquinoline (1.0 g, 68.8% yield) as a clear liquid
