## Abstract

The present invention relates to a novel method for preparing 1-(4-(4-(3,4-dichloro-2-fluorophenylamino)-7-methoxyquinazolin-6-yloxy)piperidin-1-yl)prop-2-en-1-one in a simpler process as compared with conventional methods by allowing 4-(3,4-dichloro-2-fluorophenylamino)-7-methoxyquinazolin-6-ol to react with an N-acyl piperidine derivative in an inert polar protic solvent in the presence of a base.

## Claims
