6-bromo-7-methylquinoline

122759-89-1

General procedure for the synthesis of 6-bromo-7-methylquinoline from 4-bromo-3-methylaniline and glycerol: [0304] A mixture of 4-bromo-3-methylaniline (20 g, 107.5 mmol), ferric sulfate (6.6 g, 43.4 mmol), glycerol (40.8 g, 440 mmol) and nitrobenzene (8.12 g, 66 mmol) was mixed with concentrated sulfuric acid (23 ml) and slowly heated. After the initial vigorous reaction subsided, the reaction mixture was refluxed for 3 h. The excess nitrobenzene was subsequently removed by evaporation. The pH was adjusted to 7-8 by adding saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution to the reaction mixture and then filtered. The filtrate was extracted with dichloromethane and the organic layers were combined and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The dried organic phase was filtered and concentrated in vacuum and the resulting solid was purified by fast column chromatography. The purified yellow solid was further washed with petroleum ether to afford 7.5 g of 6-bromo-7-methylquinoline in 31% yield. The structure of the product was confirmed by 1H NMR (CDCl3): δ 2.60 (s, 3H), 7.36 (m, 1H), 7.96 (s, 1H), 8.04 (m, 2H), 8.89 (m, 1H).

Intermediate 4: 6-Bromo-7-methyl-quinoline; [0304] A mixture of 4-bromo-3-methylaniline (20 g, 107.5 mmol), ferric sulfate (6.6 g, 43.4 mmol), glycerol (40.8 g, 440 mmol), nitrobenzene (8.12 g, 66 mmol), and concentrated EPO sulfuric acid (23 ml) was heated gently. After the first vigorous reaction, the mixture was boiled for 3h and then evaporated to remove the excess nitrobenzene. The solution was added a saturated aqueous solution of sodium bicarbonate until pH=7-8, then the solution was filtered and extracted with dichloromethane. The combined organic layers were dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The solid was purified by flash column chromatography to give a yellow solid, which was further washed with petroleum ether to give 7.5 g of 6-bromo-7-methyl-quinoline (31% yield): 1H NMR (CDCl3): 2.60 (s, 3H), 7.36 (m, IH), 7.96 (s, IH), 8.04 (m, 2H), 8.89 (m, IH).
