The nitrogen purged reaction mixture was filtered on celite, the cake was washed with methanol and the combined filtrate and washings evaporated. The residue was purified by column chromatography over silica gel (DCM/MeOH/2M NH3, 85:10:5) evaporation of the combined appropriate fractions afforded the pure titled product as yellow-orange solid (12.9 g, 82%). C11H14N4, MW: 202.26; 1H-NMR (300 MHz, d6-DMSO) ppm: 2.13 (s, 3H), 5.24 (s, 2H), 6.67 (d, 1H), 7.08 (dd, 1H), 7.17 (t, 1H), 7.23 (d, 1H), 7.81 (d, 1H).
