Morpholine → N-[4-(3-bromoanilino)-3-cyano-7-methoxyquinolin-6-yl]-4-morpholin-4-ylbut-2-enamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a mixture of 0.69 g (1.87 mmol) of 4-[(3-Bromophenyl)amino]-7-methoxy-6-amino-3-quinolinecarbonitrile and 0.98 ml (5.6 mmol) of Hunig's base in 50 ml of dry THF at 0° C., with stirring, was added a THF solution containing 0.86 g (5 mmol) of 4-bromocrotonyl chloride dropwise. The mixture was stirred for a additional 0.5 hour and then was added to a solution of 4.89 ml (56 mmol) morpholine in 50 ml THF at 0° C. dropwise. The solution was stirred an additional 0.5 hour and then the mixture was poured into diluted sodium bicarbonate solution. The organic layer was separated and dried over sodium sulfate. The residue was chromatographed to give 0.38 g of grey solid: mass spectrum (electrospray, m/e): M+H 521.9 and 523.8.
