2c (1 g, 2.27 mmol) and K2CO3 (325 mesh, 0.941 g, 6.51
mmol) in dry acetonitrile (57 mL, 0.04 M) was added
2-(chloromethyl)-6-fluoroquinoline (0.444 g, 2.27 mmol).
The solution was then heated to 40°C and allowed to stir
for 48 hours. After reaction completion the K2CO3 was
filtered through Celite then the reaction volume was
reduced producing a slightly yellow viscous oil. The crude
product was then purified on silica using a 30:4:1 ethyl
acetate:methanol:NH4OH(aq) eluent system. Fractions
containing monosubstituted product were collected, the
volume was reduced then redissolved in CH2Cl2 and
washed with NH4OH(aq). The organic layer was dried
over MgSO4 and the volume was reduced producing a
