Participants

Reaction Steps

2-Methyl-6-amino-4-(3-phenylpyrrolidin-1-yl)quinoline (0.08 g; see Example 45 below), 4-methoxybenzaldehyde (0.071 g), sodium triacetoxyborohydride (0.165 g) and acetic acid (0.05 mL) in 1,2-dichloroethane (5 mL) was refluxed for 4 hours. The reaction mixture was diluted with 1 N sodium hydroxide and extracted with ethyl acetate, washed with water, dried (MgSO4), filtered and evaporated. The residue was purified by chromatography on silica, eluting with a mixture of dichloromethane, and methanol. The desired fractions were concentrated and the sample evaporated to dryness. Trituration from ether gave the title compound as a white powder (0.01 g).
