Cesium carbonate → 3-(6-Methoxy-7-(2-morpholinoethoxy)quinazolin-4-yloxy)aniline

Participants

Reaction Steps

3-Aminophenol (338 mg, 3.09 mmol) was treated with cesium carbonate (2 g, 6.2 mmol) in anhydrous isopropanol (10 mL) and the mixture stirred at room temperature for 30 minutes. 4-(2-(4-chloro-6-methoxyquinazolin-7-yloxy)ethyl)morpholine from the previous step (1 g, 3.09 mmol) was added and the mixture stirred at 80° C. for 2h. Cesium carbonate was filtered off, washed with isopropanol and the filtrate concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel chromatography (dichloromethane/methanol 9:1) to afford 3-(6-methoxy-7-(2-morpholinoethoxy)quinazolin-4-yloxy)aniline (236 mg, 22%) as a browish solid. 1H NMR (300 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 8.54 (s, 1H), 7.51 (s, 1H), 7.41 (s, 1H), 7.09 (t, 1H), 6.50-6.37 (m, 3H), 5.30 (bs, 2H), 4.34-4.30 (m, 2H), 3.91 (s, 3H), 3.60 (s, 4H), 2.82-2.70 (m, 2H) 2.59-2.42 (m, 4H); LC-MS (ESI) m/z 397 (M+H)+.
