Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 1-benzyl-4-(6-methoxy-4-methylquinolin-8-yl)piperazine (2.0 g, 5.76 mmol), methylene chloride (50 mL) and vinyl chloroformate (0.8 mL, 8.64 mmol) were refluxed for 4 hours. The mixture was concentrated, then dissolved in a 1:1 mixture of dioxane/conc. HCl and stirred at ambient temperature for 18 hours. The reaction mixture was made basic with 2.5 N aqueous NaOH and extracted with ethyl acetate (2×200 mL). The combined organic layers were washed with water (100 mL) and brine (100 mL), then were dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated to give 0.6 g (47%) of the title compound: mp 208-209° C.
