Sodium hydride → 3-{4-[(3-methyl-3H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-yl)oxy]phenyl}-1-propyl-1,3-dihydro-2H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-one

Reaction Steps

3-Methyl-2-(methylsulfonyl)-3H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridine (320 mg) was added to a solution of 3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-1-propyl-1,3-dihydro-2H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-one (400 mg) and NaH (65.3 mg) in DMF (5 mL) at 100° C. The mixture was heated at 180° C. for 30 min under microwave irradiation. The reaction mixture was diluted with MeOH and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by column chromatography (NH silica gel, eluted with 0%-50% EtOAc in hexane) to give 3-{4-[(3-methyl-3H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-yl)oxy]phenyl}-1-propyl-1,3-dihydro-2H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-one (300 mg) as white crystals.
