Procedure
Hydrogenate a mixture 2-imidazo[1,2-a]pyridin-3-yl)acetamide (0.64 gm) and 0.158 gm platinum oxide in 200 mL ethanol saturated with hydrogen chloride at 60 p.s.i. for 2 hours at room temperature. Filter the reaction mixture and concentrate the filtrate under reduced pressure to provide 0.58 gm ethyl 2-(5,6,7,8-tetrahydroimidazo[1,2-a]pyridin-3-yl)acetate. Heat a solution of this ester in 40 mL 2 M ammonia in methanol in a sealed tube at 100° C. for 2 hours. Cool the reaction mixture to room temperature and concentrate under reduced pressure to a volume of about 5 mL. Dilute with ethyl acetate and filter the resulting solid to provide the title compound.
