Methyl iodide → HCID 11527262, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a suspension of sodium hydride (0.023 g, 0.98 mmol) in dry THF (15 mL) at 0° C., in a 25 mL round bottom flask, was added {3-[(3,5-bis-trifluoromethyl-benzylamino)-methyl]-quinolin-2-yl}-cyclopentylmethyl-ethyl-amine (0.25 g, 0.44 mmol), obtained in step (iv) of Example 35. This reaction mixture was stirred for 10 minutes at the same temperature, carbon disulphide (0.112 g, 0.98 mmol) was added dropwise, followed by the addition of methyl iodide (0.208 g, 1.47 mmol). The reaction was allowed to reach RT and stirring was continued for 0.5 h. Water was then added to the reaction, which was then extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined organic layer was washed with brine solution and dried over sodium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated to afford the title compound (0.250 g), yield: 87%, of purity 98.59% (HPLC: Symmetry Shield RP8, [0.01M KH2PO4:CH3CN], 217 nM, Rt 12.221 min).
