10.1 g of 1H-naphth[2,3-d]imidazole-2-thiol are suspended in 100 ml of alcohol in a 250 ml volume sulphonating flask equipped with a stirrer, thermometer, cooler and dropping funnel. A solution of 4.0 g of sodium hydroxide in 50 ml of water was then added dropwise, and a clear solution formed. The solution was then heated to boiling, 8.2 g of 2-chloromethyl-pyridine-hydrochloride were added, and the resulting mixture was boiled under reflux overnight. The reaction mixture was then concentrated by evaporation, the residue was taken up in 600 ml of ethyl acetate and 200 ml of water, and the ethyl acetate phase was washed twice with 200 ml of water, dried over sodium sulphate, and concentrated by evaporation in vacuo. The residue was recrystallised once from ethyl acetate/petroleum ether and provided 2-[(2-pyridylmethyl)thio]-1H-naphth[2,3-d]imidazole having a melting point of 165°-167°; the hydrochloride melts at 230°-231°.
