Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A solution of acetyl chloride (0.55 cc) in methylene chloride (5 cc) is added in the course of 10 minutes to a stirred solution of 4-[(6-amino-2-phenyl-4-quinolyl)oxyacetyl]morpholine (2.55 g), prepared according to Example 39, and triethylamine (1.2 cc) in methylene chloride (25 cc). The mixture is stirred for 1 hour at room temperature (approximately 20° C.) and the solvent evaporated off under reduced pressure. The residue is stirred for 10 minutes in an ethyl acetate/water (5:2 by volume) mixture, filtered off, dissolved in a toluene/acetic acid (50:50 by volume) mixture and precipitated with ethyl ether. After filtration and drying, 4-[(6-acetylamino-2-phenyl-4-quinolyl)oxyacetyl]morpholine (2 g), m.p. 261° C., is isolated.
