Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 4-vinylphenol (10% wt. solution in propylene glycol) (1.25 g, 1.04 mmol), 4-Chloromethyl-2-methylquinoline (0.24 g, 1.2 eq), Cs2CO3 (0.85 g, 2.5 eq) and NaI (0.20 g, 1.2 eq) in DMSO (1 ml) was stirred at rt overnight. After work up, the residue was purified by flash column chromatography (40% ethyl acetate-hexanes) to give 2-methyl-4-(4-vinyl-phenoxymethyl)-quinoline (0.134 g, 46.8%) as a white solid. MS Found: (M+H)+=276.
