Triethylamine → (7-Benzyloxy-3-nitro-quinolin-4-yl)[(2,2-dimethyl[1,3]dioxolan-4-yl)methyl]amine

Participants

Reaction Steps

Triethylamine (31.88 mL, 228.77 mmol) followed by 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolan-4-methanamine (20.0 g, 152.51 mmol) were added to a solution of 7-benzyloxy-4-chloro-3-nitroquinoline (48.00 g, 152.51 mmol) in dichloromethane (400 mL), which was then stirred at ambient temperature for 6 hours. The crude reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure, and the resulting solid was treated with water. The mixture was stirred for 1 hour. The solid was collected by filtration, washed with water, dried, suspended in diethyl ether (400 mL), sonicated, and the resulting precipitate material was collected by filtration. The product was dried under vacuum at 40° C. for 12 hours to afford 60.1 g of (7-benzyloxy-3-nitro-quinolin-4-yl)[(2,2-dimethyl[1,3]dioxolan-4-yl)methyl]amine as a yellow solid, mp 154-155° C.
