Participants

Reaction Steps

4-Chloro-2-methyl-6-phenoxyquinoline (0.2 g; see Preparation 3 above) and 3-benzyl-pyrrolidine (0.3 g) in 2-ethoxyethanol (4 mL) were heated in a microwave to 200° C. for 20 minutes. The mixture was diluted with 1 N sodium hydroxide and extracted with ethyl acetate, dried (MgSO4), filtered and evaporated.
