Temperature77.5 °C

Reaction Steps

A solution of N-[2-(dimethylamino)ethyl]pyridine-2,3-diamine (1.49 g, 8.3 mmol) in DMF is treated with carbonyldiimidazole (CDI) (2.01 g, 12.4 g) under nitrogen, stirred at 75-80° C. for 24 h, cooled to room temperature and concentrated in vacuo. The resultant residue is chromatographed, eluting with 10:90 conc. NH4OH:ethanol to afford a solid which is triturated with ethanol:ethyl acetate to afford the title compound as a tan solid, 0.387 g, mp 141-142° C., identified by NMR and mass spectral analyses.
