The synthesis of 2-(ethoxymethyl)-1-propyl-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]quinolin-8-ol is described in Parts A-I of Example 2. A modification of the method described in Part A of Example 405 was used to convert 2-ethoxymethyl-1-propyl-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]quinolin-8-ol into 2-(ethoxymethyl)-1-propyl-8-(tetrahydrofuran-3-yloxy)-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]quinoline using 3-hydroxytetrahydrofuran in lieu of 1-(3-hydroxypropyl)pyrrolidin-2-one. Modifications of the methods described in Parts B and C of Example 405 were used to convert 2-(ethoxymethyl)-1-propyl-8-(tetrahydrofuran-3-yloxy)-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]quinoline into 2-(ethoxymethyl)-1-propyl-8-(tetrahydrofuran-3-yloxy)-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]quinolin-4-amine. Parts B and C were combined by omitting the aqueous work up of Part B, in other words, the ammonium hydroxide and p-toluenesulfonyl chloride reagents used in Part C were added to the reaction mixture in Part B. The reaction was worked up as described in Part C of Example 405. 2-(Ethoxymethyl)-1-propyl-8-(tetrahydrofuran-3-yloxy)-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]quinolinamine was isolated as tan needles, mp 173-175° C.
