Procedure

To 1.00 g (4.2 mmol) of methyl 5-chloro-4-oxo-1,4-dihydrocinnoline-3-carboxylate and 0.86 g (5.0 mmol) of benzyl bromide in 30 mL of dimethylformamide was added 0.20 g (5.0 mmol) of sodium hydride (60% dispersion in mineral oil). The mixture was stirred for 4 h at room temperature and quenched with water. The mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate and the combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated onto silica gel. The crude material was purified by flash chromatography eluting with a 33-50% ethyl acetate/hexanes gradient mixture to give 0.86 g (62%) of the title compound as a light yellow solid.
