Isobutylamine → (7-Benzyloxy-3-nitroquinolin-4-yl)(2-methylpropyl)amine

Participants

Reaction Steps

Triethylamine (38.6 mL, 0.277 mol) was added to a solution of 7-benzyloxy-4-chloro-3-nitroquinoline (72.9 g, 0.232 mol) in dichloromethane (1200 mL). Isobutylamine (25.24 mL, 0.2540 mol) was then added, and the reaction mixture was stirred for 18 hours at ambient temperature. The reaction mixture was diluted with dichloromethane, washed sequentially with water (2×) and brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure to yield 67.4 g of (7-benzyloxy-3-nitroquinolin-4-yl)-(2-methylpropyl)amine as a brown solid.
