Participants

Reaction Steps

540 mg (1.65 mmol) 5-(aminomethyl)-3-bromo-2-(2-cyanophenyl)benzofuran (prepared according to WO 92/09600) and 300 mg (1.65 mmol) 7-Chloro-5-ethylpyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine (Example 1, Step B) were heated with reflux in 4 ml dry ethanol for 13 h. In order to complete the conversion of the amine 200 mg of the chloride and 0.24 ml triethylamine in 4 ml dry ethanol were added, and the mixture was heated for additional 21 h. The solvent was removed in vacuo, and the title compound isolated from the residue by chromatography (hexane/acetone 95:5 to 75:25) to give colorless crystals after evaporation to dryness,
