Procedure

5-chloro-7-(methyloxy)-3-{[2-methyl-3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]methyl}-3H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridine (45 mg, 0.126 mmol) was suspended in 1.5 mL of morpholine in a microwave vial and the mixture was irradiated in a microwave oven at 130° C. for 45 min, then for additional 3 h, another 3 h and then additional 12 h. Product is slowly forming (as observed by LC/MS) going through the formation of the 7-hydroxy derivative first. The mixture was then irradiated for 3 h at 200° C., to provide complete conversion to the desired product. An additional aliquot of 5-chloro-7-(methyloxy)-3-{[2-methyl-3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]methyl}-3H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridine (60 mg, 0.169 mmol) was suspended in morpholine (1.5 mL) and irradiated in a microwave oven at 200° C. for 3 h. The reaction was not completed, so it was irradiated again in the microwave at 200° C. for 150 min. The two reaction mixtures were combined and diluted with water and 1 N HCl was added to pH 4-5. The precipitate formed was collected by filtration, washed with water and dried. The solid was dissolved in DMSO and purified by Reverse phase-HPLC (25 to 80% AcCN in water plus 0.1% TFA). Two peaks closely eluted on the HPLC and were isolated for the product. The slower retention time peak presented 2% impurity so it was kept separated. The collected fractions were neutralized by the addition of NaHCO3 sat sol and the solvent volume was reduced to ½-⅓ of the original. The precipitates were collected washed with water and dried in a vacuum oven at 45° C. for 5 h to give 3-{[2-methyl-3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]methyl}-5-(4-morpholinyl)-3H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-7-ol (21 mg, 0.052 mmol, 17.77% yield) which was submitted for testing, and the less pure sample of 3-{[2-methyl-3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]methyl}-5-(4-morpholinyl)-3H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-7-ol (18 mg, 0.046 mmol, 15.54% yield), which was stored as is. MS (ES+) m/e 393 (MH+); 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ ppm 10.85 (br. s., 1H), 7.99 (s, 1H), 7.62 (d, J=8.08 Hz, 1H), 7.34 (t, J=7.83 Hz, 1H), 7.26 (d, J=7.58 Hz, 1H), 6.07 (s, 1H), 5.41 (s, 2H), 3.57-3.76 (m, 4H), 3.24-3.40 (m, 4H), (CH3 peak under DMSO peak).
