Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 1 g (0.0046 mol) of 6-hydroxy-quinoline-2-carboxylic acid ethyl ester, 2.4 g (0.0092 mol) of triphenylphospine (Fluka), 2.4 g (0.0092 mol) of 1-isopropyl-piperidin-4-ol and 1.6 ml (0.0092 mol) of di-tert.-butyl azadicarboxylate 40% in toluene in 100 ml THF was stirred for a prolonged period of time at 35° C. The mixture was filtered through a pad of silica and washed with 30 ml THF. The mixture was evaporated to dryness and purified on silica eluting with a gradient of DCM/MeOH 98/2. The product fractions were evaporated and the residue was triturated with diethyl ether to yield after drying under vacuum 1.3 mg (83%) of the title compound as white solid. MS (m/e): 343.3 (M+H)+.
