Reaction Steps

58.3 g of ethyl 1-cyclopropyl-5,7-dichloro-6,8-difluoro-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-3-quinoline carboxylate (0161 mol), 15.4 ml of benzyl amine, and 37.0 g of anhydrous K2CO3 in 220 ml of acetonitrile were stirred at 100-110° C. for 1 hour. The reaction was monitored by TLC. After the solvent was evaporated, the residue was re-crystallized from ethanol to give 58.3 g of ethyl 1-cyclopropyl-7-chloro-6,8-difluoro-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-3-quinolinecarboxylate (0.135 mol) in 83.7% yield.
