Thionyl Chloride → HCID 22320538, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of thionyl chloride (6.74 g, 56.6 mmol) in dichloromethane (50 mL) was slowly added to a solution of N-(6-hydroxyhexyl)-3-nitroquinolin-4-amine (14.9 g, 51.5 mmol) in dichloromethane (200 mL). After the addition was complete the reaction mixture was stirred for about an hour and then it was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was suspended in water, slurried for about an hour, isolated by filtration, washed with water and then dried to provide 14.0 g of N-(6-chlorohexyl)-3-nitroquinolin-4-amine as a solid.
