Procedure

To 4.5 g (17.1 mmol) of the above 2-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine in a Paar bottle, 100 ml of ethanol, 1.5 ml of concentrated hydrochloric acid, and 0.4 g of platinum oxide were added. This mixture was placed on a Paar hydrogenator at 45 psi of hydrogen at room temperature for 15 minutes. Thin layer chromatography revealed that the reaction was complete. The mixture was filtered through celite and washed with 300 ml of ethyl acetate. To the filtrate, excess saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate was slowly added. The ethyl acetate layer was separated, washed with saturated brine, and dried over magnesium sulfate. Evaporating the solvent in vacuo gave a solid residue to which n-butyl chloride was added. The solid was filtered, washed with n-butyl chloride, and dried to give 1.2 g of the title compound (m.p. 134°-136° C.). The filtrate was also concentrated in vacuo to give a sludge which on silica gel chromatography (5:1 followed by 3:1 followed in turn by 1:1 hexane/ethyl acetate) afforded another 2.1 g of the title compound.
