A procedure similar to that described in Preparation 15 was repeated, except that 3.40 g of 2-(3-hydroxypropyl)-3H-imidazo[5,4-b]pyridine (prepared as described in Preparation 33), 0.81 g of sodium hydride (as a 55% by weight dispersion in mineral oil), 1.2 ml of methyl iodide and 100 ml of dimethylformamide were used, to give the title compound as a crude product. This crude product was purified by column chromatograpy through silica gel, using a 10:1 by volume mixture of ethyl acetate and methanol as the eluent. The product was crystallized by trituration with ethyl acetate, to give 3.10 g of the title compound, melting at >300° C.
