Reaction Steps

A 10 mL aliquot DMF is cooled to 5° C. To this is added 2.26 mL (0.024 mol) of phosphorous oxychloride. The mixture is warmed to room temperature, stirred for 15 minutes and cooked to 5° C. To this solution is added dropwise a solution 3.2 g (0.08 mol) of 4-(benzyloxycarbonylamino-6-methoxy-pyridin-2-yl)-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxylic acid ethyl ester dissolved in 15 mL of DMF. The reaction mixture is warmed to room temperature and stirred for 3 hours. The reaction mixture is carefully poured into 100 mL of saturated sodium bicarbonate. The pH is adjusted to 8 with solid K2CO3 and the mixture extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic extracts are dried (Na2SO4) and evaporated. The residue is chromatographed on 150 g of silica gel using ethyl acetate followed by 10/1 chloroform/methanol as the eluant. Appropriate fractions are combined to yield 1.46 grams of 8-methoxy-3H-pyrrolo[2,3-c]quinoline-1-carboxylic acid ethyl ester. 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ 9.10 (s, 1H), 8.35 (d, 1H), 8.10 (s, 1H, 7.2 (s, 1H), 7.05 (d, 1H), 4.4 (q, 2H), 4.10 (s, 3H), 1.40 (t, 3H). Mass spectrum: m/e=260 (p+1). TLC (ethyl acetate) Rf=0.3. Step 8:
