PROCESS FOR PREPARING QUINOLINE DERIVATIVES

摘要

A process for preparing a compound of Formula I is disclosed, comprising the steps: wherein: R1 is halo; R2 is halo; R3 is (C1-C6)alkyl or (C1-C6)alkyl optionally substituted with heterocycloalkyl; R4 is (C1-C6)alkyl; and Q is CH or N; comprising: (a) contacting 1,1-cyclopropane dicarboxylic acid with thionyl chloride in a polar aprotic solvent; (b) adding and a tertiary amine base to the mixture of step (a) to form a compound of Formula A; and (c) coupling a compound of Formula A with an amine of Formula B to form a compound of Formula I.
