Participants

Reaction Steps

The title compound was prepared in accordance with the general method of Example 1, from 2-bromo-pyridine (87 mg, 0.55 mmol) and 2-but-3-ynyl-quinoline (100 mg, 0.55 mmol). Reaction time: 120° C. for 15 minutes. The crude residue was purified by flash chromatography (cyclohexane/AcOEt 1:1) to yield 74 mg (0.29 mmol, 52%) of 2-(pyridin-2-yl)but-3-ynyl)quinoline as a yellow oil.
