Methanol → 6-chloro-2-(4-fluorophenyl)-8-methyl-3-(1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridin-4-yl)imidazo[1,2-b]pyridazine

Participants

Reaction Steps

Added to a suspension of 0.50 g (0.97 mmol) of 6-chloro-2-(4-fluorophenyl)-8-methyl-3-[1-(phenylsulphonyl)-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridin-4-yl]imidazo[1,2-b]pyridazine in 10 ml of a mixture of methanol and a few ml of tetrahydrofuran is 0.32 ml (1.9 mmol) of a 6N aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide. The mixture gradually become homogeneous and the reaction is stirred for 30 minutes. The reaction medium is diluted with 100 ml of water and the product is extracted with dichloromethane. The organic phase is separated, dried over sodium sulphate and the solvent is removed by evaporation under reduced pressure. The orange solid obtained is then chromatographed over a silica gel column (35 g) by eluting with a mixture of dichloromethane, methanol and aqueous ammonia (95/5/0.5) in order to give 0.293 g of 6-chloro-2-(4-fluorophenyl)-8-methyl-3-(1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridin-4-yl)imidazo[1,2-b]pyridazine in the form of a yellow powder after trituration in isopropyl ether, chilling, filtration and drying.
