Participants

Reaction Steps

4-(Benzyloxy)-2,3,6-trimethylquinoline-1-oxide (1.18 g) was dissolved in acetic anhydride (32 mL), followed by stirring at room temperature for 2 hours. After the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure, water (50 mL) was added to the residue, followed by extraction with ethyl acetate (100 mL). The organic layer was washed sequentially with water and saturated brine, and dried. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure, and the residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (eluent: chloroform) to obtain [4-(benzyloxy)-3,6-dimethylquinolin-2-yl]methyl acetate (1.25 g).
