Reaction Steps

Under a nitrogen atmosphere, triethylamine (6.4 mL, 46.2 mmol) was added to a suspension of 3-amino-7-fluoro-4-quinolinol hydrochloride (3 g, 14.0 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (50 mL). Butyryl chloride (1.6 mL, 15.4 mmol) was added dropwise at ambient temperature. The reaction mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 4 hours. Aqueous sodium bicarbonate was added and the reaction mixture was allowed to stir at ambient temperature for about 1 hour. The resulting biphasic mixture was filtered to remove solids. The solids were rinsed with diethyl ether to provide a slightly pink powder. The tetrahydrofuran layer was concentrated under vacuum to provide a dark pink solid. This solid was triturated with ether and then oven dried. The solids were combined to provide 3.0 g of N-(7-fluoro-4-hydroxyquinolin-3-yl)butanamide. A 300 mg portion was recrystallized from ethyl acetate/ethanol to provide a light gray fluffy solid, m.p. 306-308° C. Analysis: Calculated for C13H13FN2O2: % C, 62.90; % H, 5.28; % N, 11.28; Found: % C, 62.95; % H, 5.34; % N, 11.14.
