Ethyl-pyrrolidin-3-ylmethyl-amine → 3-Quinolinecarboxylic acid, 7-(3-((ethylamino)methyl)-1-pyrrolidinyl)-6,8-difluoro-1,4-dihydro-1-(1-methylcyclopropyl)-4-oxo-

Participants

Reaction Steps

To 0.75 g (2.57 mmol) of 6,7,8-trifluoro-1,4-dihydro-1-(1-methylcyclopropyl)-4-oxo-3-quinolinecarboxylic acid in 15.0 ml of acetonitrile was added 0.38 g (2.57 mmol) of 1,8-diazobicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene and 0.32 g (2.57 mmol) of 3-[(ethylamino)methyl]pyrrolidine. The mixture was refluxed for two hours and was cooled and filtered. The solids were washed with ether to afford 0.76 g of 7-[3-[(ethylamino)methyl]-1-pyrrolidinyl]-6,8-difluoro 1,4-dihydro-1-(1-methylcyclopropyl)-4-oxo-3-quinolinecarboxylic acid, mp 261°-263° C.
